## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Destructive Action
- **Selected version:** 1.2.729
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The SDK source appears consistent with its Files.com API purpose, and no automatic install behavior was found. However, the shipped build helper deletes ~/.npmrc and ~/.yarnrc when run, so this merits a warning for a destructive side effect.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-03T01:30:02.465Z

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:** build.sh removes user npm and Yarn configuration files as a side effect.

- **Trigger:** Manually running build.sh.

- **Impact:** User package-manager configuration may be lost; no network exfiltration or other attack was identified.

- **Evidence paths:** build.sh

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T01:30:39.938Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The script runs rm -f on ~/.npmrc and ~/.yarnrc before npm install and npm run build.

- **Rationale:** The SDK source appears consistent with its Files.com API purpose, and no automatic install behavior was found. However, the shipped build helper deletes ~/.npmrc and ~/.yarnrc when run, so this merits a warning for a destructive side effect.

- **Files touched:** ~/.npmrc, ~/.yarnrc

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** build.sh deletes ~/.npmrc and ~/.yarnrc before installing dependencies and building, an unexpected destructive side effect when the helper is run., The package manifest declares no install lifecycle hook; its build script only runs Babel over src.

- **Evidence against:** The SDK defaults to https://app.files.com and exposes methods for the caller to configure its API key and base URL., The CLI shim locates and executes a files-cli binary when invoked; no install-time execution is declared.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to files.com@1.2.729.

- Review the evidence and your use of files.com@1.2.729 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
