AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest activates a script that modifies the consumer project's CLAUDE.md during installation, with no affirmative setup guard. Although the inserted text is package usage guidance, the automatic mutation of a foreign agent control file supports blocking under the lifecycle control-surface policy.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Installing the package with lifecycle scripts enabled triggers postinstall.
Impact
The package alters a foreign AI-agent control file during installation, changing instructions used by the consumer's agent.
Mechanism
The script resolves the consumer project root, then appends a marked section to CLAUDE.md or replaces the existing marked section. The section directs the agent to read the package's skills.
Policy narrative
On installation, postinstall runs scripts/init-skills.js against the consumer project root. Unless installing the package itself, the script appends or replaces a marked section in CLAUDE.md that directs the agent to read package-authored skills. This is an unconsented lifecycle mutation of a consumer AI-agent control surface.
AI rationale
The manifest activates a script that modifies the consumer project's CLAUDE.md during installation, with no affirmative setup guard. Although the inserted text is package usage guidance, the automatic mutation of a foreign agent control file supports blocking under the lifecycle control-surface policy.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI identified this as a dangerous AI-agent capability at 91.0% confidence with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for policy risk
- package.json runs scripts/init-skills.js automatically through postinstall.
- The script targets the installing project's CLAUDE.md and skips only when the project root is the package itself.
- The script appends or replaces a marked section in CLAUDE.md during installation.
- That section directs the AI agent to read this package's skills before using its components, hooks, or utilities.
Evidence against
- The inserted section describes package usage guidance and points to skills shipped with the package.
- The script does not contact a network endpoint.
