create-zuplo-api@7.10.0
Create Zuplo API with one command
AI Security Review
scanned 23d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package has no npm install lifecycle hook, but its explicit CLI agent setup writes project-level configuration enabling plugins and MCP servers. Classify this as a guarded agent capability risk and warn rather than block.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
The user selects agents during project creation or supplies --agents.
Impact
The generated project grants selected agents additional integrations and capabilities, creating an agent configuration risk without establishing an active attack.
Mechanism
The CLI writes agent instruction and configuration files; Claude settings enable Zuplo plugins and all project MCP servers.
AI rationale
The package has no npm install lifecycle hook, but its explicit CLI agent setup writes project-level configuration enabling plugins and MCP servers. Classify this as a guarded agent capability risk and warn rather than block.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 90.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json exposes dist/index.js as the CLI and lists development/build scripts, with no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- Agent configuration requires an explicit --agents selection or an interactive choice; CI and --yes leave the agent list empty.
- Selected setup writes project-level agent files. Claude settings enable two Zuplo plugins, register the Zuplo tools marketplace, and enable all project MCP servers.
- The configured Zuplo MCP server is https://dev.zuplo.com/mcp/docs.
Evidence against
- The agent setup is guarded by user selection and is part of explicit project creation, not npm installation.
- The observed agent integration points to Zuplo-controlled plugins and an MCP server; source inspection did not establish credential theft or another active attack.
