## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 2.3.2
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected source supports a warning for automatic agent skill synchronization following a CLI update, but does not establish the files changed or a broader control surface mutation. The scanner's command execution and network signals are consistent with the update path; they do not establish command output exfiltration.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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:** Runtime update handling can refresh the CLI and then invoke an agent skill synchronization command. The package source does not establish the command's file scope or a separate affirmative consent step for that synchronization.

- **Trigger:** A CLI command runs, an update check finds a sufficiently newer version, and the automatic update succeeds; quiet mode and the explicit update command are excluded from this path.

- **Impact:** An agent skill may be changed as a side effect of runtime update handling; the affected settings and files are not identified in this package source.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T23:49:31.369Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The runtime installs the CLI package through npm or updates its binary, then launches a child process to synchronize an agent skill.

- **Rationale:** The inspected source supports a warning for automatic agent skill synchronization following a CLI update, but does not establish the files changed or a broader control surface mutation. The scanner's command execution and network signals are consistent with the update path; they do not establish command output exfiltration.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 83.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest lists build, development, test, and check scripts, with no install lifecycle hook., The runtime checks for updates at most once per day and queries the npm registry for the package version., During a normal CLI command, a sufficiently newer version can trigger the update routine, except for quiet mode and the update command itself., After a successful update, the code runs a child process to synchronize an agent skill., The non-binary update path globally installs the CLI package before running the skill synchronization step., The update check uses the npm registry endpoint.

- **Evidence against:** The source shows no install-time execution or credential transfer in the reviewed update path., The updater targets the CLI package and uses the npm registry; the source does not show what files the skill synchronization command changes.
