No confirmed malicious attack surface was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-21T00:56:34.024Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-21T00:58:00.671Z - **Download time:** 1032 ms - **Static scan time:** 8466 ms - **AI review time:** 77146 ms - **Total time:** 86647 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation starts the package's loopback web UI and, only in a local checkout, installs a formatting Git hook. No confirmed malicious attack surface was established. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; normal web runtime - **Impact:** Starts a local service and may alter this checkout's pre-commit hook; no exfiltration or foreign agent-control mutation found. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, scripts/fix-node-pty.mjs, dist/web/server.js, dist/web/self-update.js, dist/hooks-config.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-21T00:58:00.671Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** bundled local AI-agent dashboard and optional git-clone self-update - **Rationale:** The scanner’s lifecycle and updater signals are real but package-aligned: the install hook launches its own loopback UI and a checkout-local formatting hook. Source inspection found no concrete malicious chain or unconsented foreign/broad AI-agent control-surface mutation. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, dist/index.js, .git/hooks/pre-commit ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** postinstall auto-starts its bundled web server unless CI or an opt-out is set., Local development installs add a Prettier-only Git pre-commit hook., The runtime updater can query GitHub releases for git-clone installs. - **Evidence against:** The server defaults to loopback binding, not public exposure., Agent-skill injection is runtime-gated and default off; foreign skills are refused., No install-time credential harvesting, exfiltration, remote payload execution, or foreign AI-agent config mutation was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
