## 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:** 1.2.752
- **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 package shows no automatic malicious behavior, but its included build helper deletes npm and Yarn configuration files when run. This is a real destructive side effect without an explicit prompt, so warn rather than block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 81.0%

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 manually invoked build helper deletes the user's npm and Yarn configuration files.

- **Trigger:** A user runs build.sh.

- **Impact:** Package-manager settings and any stored registry credentials in those files may be lost.

- **Evidence paths:** build.sh

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T01:42:52.405Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The script runs rm -f on ~/.npmrc and ~/.yarnrc before installing dependencies and building.

- **Rationale:** The package shows no automatic malicious behavior, but its included build helper deletes npm and Yarn configuration files when run. This is a real destructive side effect without an explicit prompt, so warn rather than block.

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

- **Network endpoints:** https://app.files.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 81.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** build.sh deletes ~/.npmrc and ~/.yarnrc before running the build; invoking it can remove the user's package-manager configuration., The manifest points to the SDK entry point and lists only build, test, lint, and watch scripts; it declares no install lifecycle script., SDK requests use the configurable Files.com base URL and the API key set by the caller.

- **Evidence against:** The build helper is not invoked by the manifest's scripts, so its deletions do not occur during normal package installation or import., The CLI wrapper only forwards arguments to an explicitly supplied or found files-cli binary., The SDK's default service endpoint is app.files.com.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to files.com@1.2.752.

- Review the evidence and your use of files.com@1.2.752 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.

```

### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

### 9. High: Semantic Analysis Limited
- **Category:** Scanner Coverage
- **Confidence:** 100.0%
- **Path:** bin/files-cli-ai
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/files.com@1.2.752/bin/files-cli-ai>)
