Codex and Claude Code can discover and load a third-party skill planted in the user's agent skill paths without a separate setup command. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 1.6.46 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. npm install runs a postinstall script that writes the bundled luna-loop skill into Codex and Claude user skill directories and removes extra files already in those folders. Those paths are foreign agent control surfaces, not a first-party extension directory owned by this package. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-17T07:07:12.949Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-17T07:08:50.736Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 230 ms - **AI review time:** 97046 ms - **Total time:** 97787 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

Those paths are foreign agent control surfaces, not a first-party extension directory owned by this package. - **Trigger:** npm install of devez-vibe, including a global install, which runs the postinstall script. - **Impact:** Codex and Claude Code can discover and load a third-party skill planted in the user's agent skill paths without a separate setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install-skills.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-17T07:08:50.736Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** unconsented install-time copy into Codex and Claude skill directories - **Attack narrative:** Installing devez-vibe runs postinstall, which copies skills/luna-loop into the user's Codex and Claude skill folders and prunes files that are not in the package copy. That mutates other products' agent control surfaces during npm install. The TUI binary and Claude SDK bridge are separate user-invoked runtime code and are not required for this install-time write. - **Rationale:** The postinstall script writes into ~/.codex/skills and ~/.claude/skills, which is unconsented install-time mutation of foreign AI-agent control surfaces. That matches a publish block even though the planted skill is not an exfiltration prompt. - **Files touched:** install-skills.mjs, skills/luna-loop/, ~/.codex/skills/luna-loop, ~/.claude/skills/luna-loop ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** postinstall automatically runs node install-skills.mjs on npm install., The install script copies the bundled luna-loop skill into the Codex user skill directory (~/.codex/skills/luna-loop, or CODEX\_HOME)., The same script copies that skill into the Claude user skill directory (~/.claude/skills/luna-loop, or CLAUDE\_CONFIG\_DIR)., After copying, it deletes extra files already present in those foreign skill directories., This runs during install with no separate user setup command; README mention of the copy is not consent. - **Evidence against:** luna-loop YAML sets allow\_implicit\_invocation to false and the skill text says it should run only on explicit $luna-loop., Inspected JavaScript has no fetch, HTTP clients, or remote payload URLs., The Claude bridge spawn and settings writes are the advertised TUI runtime, not the install hook., The planted skill text is a verification-loop procedure, not a credential-theft prompt. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to devez-vibe@1.6.46. - Avoid installing devez-vibe@1.6.46. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
