## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 3.3.0
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Source inspection shows a static-analysis package with no install hook. The credential-related CLI code inspects user source and emits diagnostics; the scanner’s fixed-gateway claim was not corroborated.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-20T16:01:56.690Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-20T16:04:18.228Z
- **Download time:** 763 ms
- **Static scan time:** 4927 ms
- **AI review time:** 135847 ms
- **Total time:** 141538 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:** No attack surface was identified in the inspected package entrypoints. The CLI includes static checks for secret-handling patterns in analyzed source.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the effect-analyze command or explicitly runs the repository-analysis script.

- **Impact:** No credential transfer, destructive action, or other confirmed attack impact was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T16:04:18.228Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI parses TypeScript configuration calls and reports likely secret-handling issues; the inspected code does not show credential forwarding to a gateway or persistent redirection.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection shows a static-analysis package with no install hook. The credential-related CLI code inspects user source and emits diagnostics; the scanner’s fixed-gateway claim was not corroborated.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/cli.js, dist/lsp/server.js, dist/rules.js, dist/analysis.cjs, scripts/analyze-public-repos.ts

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes static-analysis entrypoints and has no install lifecycle hook., The CLI’s credential-related match is a source-analysis rule that scans TypeScript configuration calls for likely secret names and reports a warning., Inspected runtime modules load the TypeScript analysis library; the analysis entry exports analysis functions., The repository-analysis helper runs from its own script entrypoint and works with listed public repositories., Inspected dependency files provide TypeScript analysis, language tooling, transpilation, and loader APIs.
