## Verdict summary
**Soft block: AI-agent control surface** — Warn by default; block when configured. Future Claude sessions in that project may follow package-provided instructions.

- **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured
- **Firewall policy:** Warn by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface
- **Selected version:** 2.1.2
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest activates a script that modifies the consumer project's Claude instruction file without consent. This meets the policy threshold for unconsented install-time mutation of an AI-agent control surface.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%

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 postinstall hook changes the installing project's CLAUDE.md to add package-provided agent instructions. This is an unconsented change to a project-level AI-agent control surface.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package through npm or another package manager that runs postinstall.

- **Impact:** Future Claude sessions in that project may follow package-provided instructions.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/init-skills.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T15:27:16.158Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The script appends a marked instruction section or replaces the existing section in CLAUDE.md, directing Claude to load the package's skills.

- **Attack narrative:** On package installation, the postinstall hook writes to the installing project's CLAUDE.md without a consent prompt. The inserted guidance directs Claude to read this package's skills before using its library. This modifies a project-level agent instruction file automatically.

- **Rationale:** The manifest activates a script that modifies the consumer project's Claude instruction file without consent. This meets the policy threshold for unconsented install-time mutation of an AI-agent control surface.

- **Files touched:** CLAUDE.md

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for policy risk:** package.json runs scripts/init-skills.js automatically in postinstall., The script targets the installing project's root, using INIT\_CWD or the current directory, and skips only when that root equals the package directory., It adds or replaces a marked section in the project's CLAUDE.md without a consent check., The inserted section directs Claude to read this package's agent skills before using its components, hooks, or utilities.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to elsan-puulse-react@2.1.2.

- Avoid installing elsan-puulse-react@2.1.2. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
