Unconsented mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface; installed skills can affect subsequent agent behavior. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 2.0.0 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation automatically populates an AI-agent skill directory. If no compatible directory is detected, it targets Cursor by default. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-13T03:34:45.333Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-13T03:35:26.208Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 714 ms - **AI review time:** 39648 ms - **Total time:** 40875 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation automatically populates an AI-agent skill directory. If no compatible directory is detected, it targets Cursor by default. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall - **Impact:** Unconsented mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface; installed skills can affect subsequent agent behavior. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/lib/install.js, dist/lib/platforms.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-13T03:35:26.208Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** recursive copy of bundled skills into ~/.cursor/skills - **Attack narrative:** During npm postinstall, the package executes its installer. It selects detected agent targets, but falls back to Cursor when none are present, then copies its bundled skills into the selected host skill directory. This mutates a foreign AI-agent control surface without an explicit user command or target selection. - **Rationale:** The postinstall hook performs unconsented, default-target installation into Cursor’s global skills directory. This meets the install-time foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation block policy despite no observed install-time network activity. - **Files touched:** dist/lib/install.js, dist/lib/platforms.js, skills/, ~/.cursor/skills ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs dist/lib/install.js automatically in postinstall., Install-time code defaults to Cursor when no supported target directory exists., The default target is ~/.cursor/skills, a foreign AI-agent control surface., Installer recursively copies bundled skills into target directories. - **Evidence against:** No network endpoint or credential-exfiltration path was found in the install hook., The installer skips existing skill paths unless force is set. ## Public findings ### 1.
