## 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:** 0.52.3
- **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 source shows a reachable install hook that may create project-level Claude files with a default-accept prompt. The copied files appear package-owned and convention-focused, so this supports a warning for guarded agent setup rather than a malicious verdict.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0%

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:** The install hook can add package-owned Claude assistance files to a consuming project. The setup is project-scoped, but its prompt proceeds unless the answer is explicitly “n” or “no.”

- **Trigger:** Installing the package as a dependency outside the development and CI contexts, with a project root found.

- **Impact:** This can introduce project-level Claude context and settings during dependency installation; no confirmed malicious behavior was identified.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T16:43:15.940Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook prompts and can copy the package's .claude directory, CLAUDE.md, blueprints, and types into the project when destination paths are absent.

- **Rationale:** The source shows a reachable install hook that may create project-level Claude files with a default-accept prompt. The copied files appear package-owned and convention-focused, so this supports a warning for guarded agent setup rather than a malicious verdict.

- **Files touched:** bin/postinstall.js, bin/domma-cli.js, templates/kickstart/.claude/settings.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** package.json runs bin/postinstall.js during installation., The hook can run from a normal node\_modules install outside CI when it finds the project root., The hook asks whether to copy AI assistance files, but only an explicit “n” or “no” declines; other answers continue., The hook copies the package’s .claude directory and other assistance files into the project when those destinations are absent., The separate setup-ai CLI command is user-invoked, and its inspected target copies a missing CLAUDE.md from the package template., The inspected Claude settings describe Domma project paths and preferences.

- **Evidence against:** The hook skips development and CI contexts and requires a node\_modules installation context., The inspected settings excerpt shows project preferences; no content-export behavior was identified.

## Affected versions and remediation
