Bundled instructions become active in installed AI-agent environments and can override same-named skill links. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 1.0.6 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the package automatically copies its skill pack and injects symlinks into multiple unrelated AI-agent skill roots. This changes the behavior available to Codex and Claude without an explicit setup command. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-26T19:24:22.096Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-26T19:25:26.248Z - **Download time:** 251 ms - **Static scan time:** 303 ms - **AI review time:** 63594 ms - **Total time:** 64152 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package automatically copies its skill pack and injects symlinks into multiple unrelated AI-agent skill roots. This changes the behavior available to Codex and Claude without an explicit setup command. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall - **Impact:** Bundled instructions become active in installed AI-agent environments and can override same-named skill links. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, scripts/oneshot-install.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-26T19:25:26.248Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic creation and forceful replacement of AI-agent skill symlinks - **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, the postinstall script imports the skill installer by default. That installer copies the bundled pack into the user's Clawd directory, creates skill directories for generic agents, Claude, and Codex, then runs shell commands that use forceful symbolic-link replacement for every bundled skill. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of broad, foreign AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** The package performs the policy-defined blocking behavior: an npm postinstall modifies multiple foreign AI-agent skill roots by default. The lack of credential theft does not remove the confirmed control-surface hijack. - **Files touched:** ~/.clawdbot/skills, ~/.agents/skills, ~/.claude/skills, ~/.codex/skills ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The manifest runs a postinstall script automatically., The postinstall path installs bundled skills unless an opt-out environment variable is set., The installer targets Codex, Claude, and generic agent skill directories in the user home directory., It creates those directories and force-replaces skill symlinks through a shell command. - **Evidence against:** The default lifecycle path copies bundled local files; no credential harvesting or credential exfiltration was found in that path., The external skill seeding and shell installers require the separate full-install flow or explicit user execution. ## Public findings ### 1.
