## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package invokes an external skills-sync command without user interaction. That command can alter an AI-agent skills control surface during npm installation.

- **Trigger:** npm installation, via the postinstall lifecycle hook.

- **Impact:** Unconsented agent-control configuration mutation during dependency installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-03T16:41:16.629Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Automatic external AI-agent skills synchronization.

- **Attack narrative:** The manifest executes \`prisma skills sync\` automatically after installation and includes Prisma as a dependency. This is an unconsented install-time action targeting an AI-agent skills surface, rather than a user-invoked setup flow. The command suppresses failure, making the installation appear successful even when the side effect cannot be verified.

- **Rationale:** The package has a concrete automatic postinstall hook that invokes an AI-agent skills synchronization command. This is unconsented install-hook abuse of a foreign control surface.

- **Files touched:** package.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 95.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** Installation automatically runs Prisma's skills synchronization command., The invoked Prisma CLI is supplied by this package's dependencies, so the lifecycle command can run during installation.

- **Evidence against:** No runtime self-dependency is declared., Elia's own MCP configuration writes are initiated through explicit interactive choices.
