## 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:** 0.53.3
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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 install hook performs project-level AI configuration setup and treats the displayed yes-default as acceptance, leaving a lifecycle risk. Its inspected templates are package-specific guidance and preferences, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

## Latest scan

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 project-level Claude Code guidance and settings during an eligible dependency install. No malicious attack behavior is established by the inspected setup files.

- **Trigger:** An npm install that runs the postinstall hook outside CI, followed by an answer other than \`n\` or \`no\` to its \`(Y/n)\` prompt.

- **Impact:** The added project guidance may influence later Claude Code work. The inspected settings are framework preferences, and the source does not establish permission changes or remote activity.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T12:46:46.732Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook copies package-owned AI assistance files into the project root when the corresponding destinations are absent; the displayed default makes an empty response proceed.

- **Rationale:** The install hook performs project-level AI configuration setup and treats the displayed yes-default as acceptance, leaving a lifecycle risk. Its inspected templates are package-specific guidance and preferences, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest runs \`bin/postinstall.js\` during installation; the hook is limited to normal \`node\_modules\` installs and skips CI and the package's own development tree., The hook asks to copy AI assistance files with a \`(Y/n)\` prompt and proceeds unless the answer is \`n\` or \`no\`, so accepting the displayed default copies them., The hook copies package-owned \`CLAUDE.md\` and \`.claude\` files into the project root only when those destinations do not already exist., The inspected templates provide Domma framework guidance and project preferences; the settings shown do not configure agent permissions or plugins., The CLI also exposes this setup through an explicit \`setup-ai\` command and asks whether to continue.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected setup concerns project-level files and package-specific framework guidance; it does not establish a remote channel or an active attack.
