## 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:** 1.1.204
- **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 automatic postinstall mutation of the user's Claude skills directory is a concrete agent extension lifecycle risk. The source supports a warning for package-owned skill setup, but does not establish a block-eligible attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-11T14:06:39.754Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-11T14:07:40.668Z
- **Download time:** 771 ms
- **Static scan time:** 13091 ms
- **AI review time:** 47051 ms
- **Total time:** 60914 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:** Installation automatically adds the package's bundled skill to the user's Claude skills directory. This is a package-owned agent extension setup and creates a persistent change to the user's assistant configuration.

- **Trigger:** npm install runs the package's postinstall hook.

- **Impact:** The installed skill can influence later assistant behavior. The inspected source does not establish credential theft or a remote control channel.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T14:07:40.668Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook copies files from the bundled skill directory into the user's Claude skills directory, optionally selected through CLAUDE\_CONFIG\_DIR.

- **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall mutation of the user's Claude skills directory is a concrete agent extension lifecycle risk. The source supports a warning for package-owned skill setup, but does not establish a block-eligible attack.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/skills/leanchy/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package runs scripts/install-skills.cjs automatically through its postinstall hook., The installer targets the user's Claude skills directory, using CLAUDE\_CONFIG\_DIR when set or ~/.claude otherwise., The installer copies bundled skill files into that directory, and the bundled skill directs the assistant's communication style., Plugin setup and management locations are part of CLI/runtime behavior; they do not remove the install-time skill copy.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to bingocode@1.1.204.

- Review the evidence and your use of bingocode@1.1.204 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.
