Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed. - **Verdict:** Clean - **Product-default install policy:** Allow - **Firewall policy:** No policy match - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** None published - **Selected version:** 1.7.2 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package has no install-time hook, and the flagged agent-directory writes occur only through an explicit skill-install command that copies this package’s skill files. The API key flows to the Asrai service used by the package, with no unrelated credential destination found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T01:57:29.841Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T01:58:01.577Z - **Download time:** 513 ms - **Static scan time:** 201 ms - **AI review time:** 31021 ms - **Total time:** 31736 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No attack was identified; this package provides an Asrai MCP client and an explicitly invoked skill installer. - **Trigger:** The CLI contacts Asrai when run with a tool request; skill files are copied only when the install-skill command is invoked. - **Impact:** Expected service access and installation of the package’s own skill; no unrelated credential transfer or harmful default action was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T01:58:01.577Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI sends the configured Asrai API key to mcp-api.asrai.me for the requested service operation. The installer copies bundled skill documentation into detected skill directories. - **Rationale:** The package has no install-time hook, and the flagged agent-directory writes occur only through an explicit skill-install command that copies this package’s skill files. The API key flows to the Asrai service used by the package, with no unrelated credential destination found. - **Network endpoints:** mcp-api.asrai.me, apiasr.asrai.me, asrai-web:3000 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, a sync check; there is no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook., Skill installation is a separately invoked command, and it copies this package’s skill and endpoint reference files., The CLI sends the supplied Asrai API key to mcp-api.asrai.me, the service this package is designed to access. - **Evidence against:** The installer writes the package’s own skill files into detected agent skill directories when explicitly run., The API key is used in requests to the package’s documented Asrai service. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to asrai-mcp-apikey@1.7.2. - Review the evidence and your use of asrai-mcp-apikey@1.7.2 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
