## 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:** 0.51.12
- **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.

The postinstall hook installs package-owned Claude Code context files unless the user declines, and the CLI provides a prompted setup path. This warrants a warning for guarded agent configuration setup, but the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior or an unconsented broad control-surface mutation.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The npm postinstall hook can add package-provided Claude Code context files to a consumer project. This is a guarded, package-owned setup capability; the inspected settings contain framework guidance, and no concrete malicious behavior was identified.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package in an eligible project and accepting the postinstall prompt; the prompt defaults to proceeding unless the answer is no.

- **Impact:** Adds assistant context and settings to the project, which can influence later coding-agent sessions.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/postinstall.js, bin/domma-cli.js, templates/kickstart/.claude/settings.json, templates/kickstart-spa/.claude/settings.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-13T14:34:21.579Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The hook copies CLAUDE.md and, if absent, recursively copies the template .claude directory into the project root. The CLI also offers this through setup-ai after a prompt.

- **Rationale:** The postinstall hook installs package-owned Claude Code context files unless the user declines, and the CLI provides a prompted setup path. This warrants a warning for guarded agent configuration setup, but the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior or an unconsented broad control-surface mutation.

- **Files touched:** CLAUDE.md, .claude/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 87.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** package.json runs bin/postinstall.js as an npm postinstall hook., The hook prompts before copying; answering no skips setup, while other answers proceed., When the project lacks a .claude directory, the hook recursively copies the package template into the project root., The CLI setup-ai command also prompts before copying assistant files and avoids replacing existing destinations., The inspected Claude settings contain Domma project paths and coding preferences.

- **Evidence against:** The postinstall hook skips CI environments and offers the user a chance to decline., The copied settings appear to provide framework guidance; the inspected excerpts show no credential transfer, remote execution, or permission changes.

## Affected versions and remediation
