The package can persist and update agent instructions for both platforms without an explicit setup command. - **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:** 1.7.47 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. npm installation automatically modifies global Codex and Claude skill control surfaces. It installs a package-supplied agent skill and prunes files in those destinations. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-04T19:56:13.198Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-04T19:57:31.596Z - **Download time:** 514 ms - **Static scan time:** 301 ms - **AI review time:** 77582 ms - **Total time:** 78398 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm installation automatically modifies global Codex and Claude skill control surfaces. It installs a package-supplied agent skill and prunes files in those destinations. - **Trigger:** Installing the package runs its postinstall hook. - **Impact:** The package can persist and update agent instructions for both platforms without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install-skills.mjs, skills/luna-loop/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-04T19:57:31.596Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Lifecycle-driven recursive copy and deletion in global AI-agent skill directories. - **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, postinstall launches install-skills.mjs. The script copies a bundled skill into the user's Codex and Claude global skill directories, then recursively deletes destination files absent from the bundled source. The installed skill controls future agent behavior, including delegation and child-process Codex CLI invocation. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of foreign AI-agent control surfaces. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete automatic postinstall mutation of broad, foreign Codex and Claude agent configuration surfaces. The documented notice does not convert lifecycle execution into explicit user consent. - **Files touched:** install-skills.mjs, skills/luna-loop/SKILL.md, $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 package runs install-skills.mjs automatically through npm postinstall., The installer targets both Codex and Claude user skill directories outside the package., The installer recursively copies its skill and deletes destination entries absent from the package., The installed skill directs agent delegation and launches the Codex CLI as a child process. - **Evidence against:** The README discloses the skill installation, but package text cannot establish user consent for an automatic lifecycle mutation., No direct network request or credential exfiltration was found in the inspected JavaScript sources. ## Public findings ### 1.
