It establishes unconsented persistence in broad AI-agent control surfaces and can influence later agent execution. - **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:** 1.7.10 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. On installation, the package silently installs and synchronizes a bundled agent skill in the user-level configuration directories of both Codex and Claude. The installed skill can direct later agent activity, including launching Codex from Claude. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-01T19:13:44.229Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-01T19:14:49.027Z - **Download time:** 764 ms - **Static scan time:** 363 ms - **AI review time:** 63670 ms - **Total time:** 64798 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** On installation, the package silently installs and synchronizes a bundled agent skill in the user-level configuration directories of both Codex and Claude. The installed skill can direct later agent activity, including launching Codex from Claude. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall on a supported Windows installation. - **Impact:** It establishes unconsented persistence in broad AI-agent control surfaces and can influence later agent execution. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install-skills.mjs, skills/luna-loop/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T19:14:49.027Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic cross-agent skill installation and recursive synchronization. - **Attack narrative:** The npm postinstall hook runs without a separate setup command. It copies the bundled luna-loop skill into both Codex and Claude user configuration directories, then recursively deletes destination files that are not in the package copy. This changes two unrelated agent control surfaces and leaves a persistent instruction payload. The payload directs agent workflows and includes launching Codex through a child process from Claude. - **Rationale:** This is an unconsented install-time mutation of broad, foreign AI-agent control surfaces, with persistent instruction content and destructive synchronization. It meets the install-hook abuse blocking boundary even without confirmed network exfiltration. - **Files touched:** package.json, install-skills.mjs, skills/luna-loop/SKILL.md, ~/.codex/skills/luna-loop, ~/.claude/skills/luna-loop ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The package runs an installer automatically after npm installation., The installer writes a bundled skill into both user-level Codex and Claude skill directories., The installer also recursively removes destination entries absent from the bundled skill., The injected skill directs an agent to invoke Codex as a child process. - **Evidence against:** No package-owned network endpoint or direct credential exfiltration was found in the inspected JavaScript., The bridge removes Anthropic credential variables before starting its SDK environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
