This is an overt but unconsented install-time system modification. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-26T17:01:55.161Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-26T17:03:26.856Z - **Download time:** 766 ms - **Static scan time:** 2849 ms - **AI review time:** 88079 ms - **Total time:** 91695 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation can modify the host through OS package managers and download a browser payload. This is an overt but unconsented install-time system modification. - **Trigger:** Running npm installation, especially as root on Linux with missing build tools. - **Impact:** It can change host packages and download a large browser artifact before the bridge is used. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/ensure-build-tools.mjs, scripts/ensure-playwright-browser.mjs, scripts/ensure-bin-executable.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-26T17:03:26.856Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Lifecycle hooks install build dependencies and Playwright Chromium. - **Rationale:** This is a risky install-hook package because it performs unprompted host package and browser installation. The inspected source does not establish malicious intent or a concrete exfiltration chain, so warning is more appropriate than blocking. - **Files touched:** scripts/ensure-build-tools.mjs, scripts/ensure-playwright-browser.mjs, scripts/ensure-bin-executable.mjs - **Network endpoints:** https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/playwright ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** The preinstall hook runs a script that installs Linux build tools through the detected system package manager when run as root., The postinstall hook downloads Playwright Chromium and, as root on Linux, requests browser system dependencies., These system and network changes happen during npm installation, before the user runs the bridge. - **Evidence against:** The inspected lifecycle scripts contain no credential harvesting or data-exfiltration logic., No lifecycle script writes AI-agent configuration files or creates an agent-control persistence entry., The package documents its host-runtime and browser-install behavior; the changes are overt rather than concealed. ## Public findings ### 1.
