The package can alter the instructions available to Codex and Claude for the user account without an explicit setup action. - **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:** 1.7.40 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the npm package changes two user-level AI-agent skill directories. It copies a package-controlled skill and prunes files from those destinations. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-04T19:55:24.203Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-04T19:56:09.752Z - **Download time:** 511 ms - **Static scan time:** 326 ms - **AI review time:** 44711 ms - **Total time:** 45549 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the npm package changes two user-level AI-agent skill directories. It copies a package-controlled skill and prunes files from those destinations. - **Trigger:** npm installation runs the postinstall lifecycle hook. - **Impact:** The package can alter the instructions available to Codex and Claude for the user account without an explicit setup action. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install-skills.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-04T19:56:09.752Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic cross-agent skill installation and pruning. - **Attack narrative:** A normal npm install invokes install-skills.mjs. That script resolves the user's Codex and Claude configuration homes, copies its bundled luna-loop skill into both global skill directories, and deletes destination entries missing from the package source. This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of foreign AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** The automatic lifecycle hook modifies both Codex and Claude user-level skill surfaces and prunes their contents. That concrete behavior meets the install-control-surface blocking policy even though no exfiltration was found in the inspected source. - **Files touched:** CODEX\_HOME/skills/luna-loop, CLAUDE\_CONFIG\_DIR/skills/luna-loop ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The postinstall hook automatically runs the skill installer., The installer writes a package-provided skill into both the user's Codex and Claude skill directories, then removes destination files absent from the package copy., This mutation occurs during dependency installation, without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence against:** The inspected installer contains no network request or credential-exfiltration code., The bridge removes Anthropic credential variables before spawning Claude commands. ## Public findings ### 1.
