## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 18 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 1.0.33
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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 default postinstall sends telemetry, which warrants a warning under the install-hook telemetry rule. The payload is described and constrained to allowlisted package and runtime details, and the ping provides opt-outs, so the source does not support a malicious verdict.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T21:16:51.095Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-31T21:17:28.036Z
- **Download time:** 510 ms
- **Static scan time:** 1235 ms
- **AI review time:** 35194 ms
- **Total time:** 36941 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:** Default install-time telemetry reports an install event to the package’s service.

- **Trigger:** npm install or reinstall, unless an opt-out or skip condition applies.

- **Impact:** The service can count and link installs across install and runtime events; the behavior is disclosed and opt-out controls are provided.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/postinstall.js, dist/install-ping.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T21:17:28.036Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The postinstall hook sends an allowlisted event with a persistent install ID and package/runtime context.

- **Rationale:** The default postinstall sends telemetry, which warrants a warning under the install-hook telemetry rule. The payload is described and constrained to allowlisted package and runtime details, and the ping provides opt-outs, so the source does not support a malicious verdict.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/postinstall.js, dist/install-ping.js, ~/.claude-code-infinite/install\_id, ~/.claude-code-infinite/first\_run\_pending

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.polychat.co/v1/ccc/diagnostics

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 97.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** npm runs a postinstall hook that invokes the install ping., The hook sends an HTTP POST to the package’s diagnostics endpoint., The install event includes a persistent install ID and allowlisted install context., The ping skips installs when a listed telemetry opt-out is set.

- **Evidence against:** The install ping is disclosed in the README and has documented opt-outs., The described payload contains package and runtime details, not credentials, paths, or environment values., Runtime diagnostics are documented and also have opt-outs.
