## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation writes a bundled skill into the user's Claude configuration without an explicit setup command. That skill changes Claude response behavior.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Persistent modification of a broad AI-agent control surface.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-skills.cjs, .claude/skills/leanchy/SKILL.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-15T22:15:14.146Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** automatic foreign Claude-skill installation

- **Attack narrative:** On installation, the package executes a postinstall script that enumerates its bundled Claude skills and copies them into the user's ~/.claude/skills directory. The installed leanchy skill declares itself active for every response and supplies response-control rules. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of a foreign AI-agent configuration surface.

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle script directly installs package-controlled instructions into the user's Claude skill directory. This meets the block threshold for unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface.

- **Files touched:** scripts/install-skills.cjs, .claude/skills/leanchy/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/leanchy/SKILL.md

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** npm postinstall runs scripts/install-skills.cjs., The script targets the user's Claude skills directory., It recursively creates skill folders and copies package files there., The installed skill imposes persistent response rules on Claude.

- **Evidence against:** The installer does not overwrite an existing skill directory., No network or credential-exfiltration behavior appears in the lifecycle script.
