Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk - **Selected version:** 1.9.30 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Automatic installation into global AI-agent skill roots is a concrete extension lifecycle risk. The inspected source does not establish the additional attack behavior required for blocking. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-28T02:44:53.396Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-28T02:45:57.013Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 335 ms - **AI review time:** 62772 ms - **Total time:** 63617 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation automatically registers bundled skills in global Codex and Claude agent skill locations. A bridge also has a callable Claude permission-settings write capability, but no confirmed automatic invocation of that capability was found. - **Trigger:** npm post-install runs automatically when the package is installed. - **Impact:** This creates an automatic agent-extension lifecycle risk and changes user-level package dependencies; no confirmed active attack was established. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install-skills.mjs, prepare-search-deps.mjs, bridge/claude-agent-sdk-bridge.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T02:45:57.013Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The lifecycle hook copies and prunes package-managed skill folders in agent skill roots and performs user-scoped Python dependency installation. - **Rationale:** Automatic installation into global AI-agent skill roots is a concrete extension lifecycle risk. The inspected source does not establish the additional attack behavior required for blocking. - **Files touched:** install-skills.mjs, prepare-search-deps.mjs, bridge/claude-agent-sdk-bridge.mjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The package declares a post-install hook that runs the skill installer and Python dependency setup., The skill installer targets the global Codex and Claude skill directories under the user configuration locations., That install-time script copies bundled skill trees into those agent directories and removes entries absent from the bundled source., The post-install setup invokes user-scoped pip installation., The bridge can write Claude permission settings when its permission-update operation is invoked. - **Evidence against:** The inspected manifest has no self-dependency., No credential collection or exfiltration sink was identified in the inspected locations. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to devez-vibe@1.9.30. - Review the evidence and your use of devez-vibe@1.9.30 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
