## Verdict summary
**Soft block: AI-agent control surface** — Warn by default; block when configured. Installed agents can be steered to invoke the package's API workflow and credential setup 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:** 0.7.11
- **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.

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation automatically injects FocalAPI skill files into every detected third-party AI-agent skills directory. This changes broad agent control surfaces without an explicit setup command.

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:** Installation automatically injects FocalAPI skill files into every detected third-party AI-agent skills directory. This changes broad agent control surfaces without an explicit setup command.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation

- **Impact:** Installed agents can be steered to invoke the package's API workflow and credential setup instructions.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-10T03:54:59.139Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Automatic discovery and mutation of third-party AI-agent skill directories

- **Attack narrative:** On installation, the lifecycle hook runs the packaged CLI with \`connect install\`. The command discovers installed AI agents in the user's home directory, then copies FocalAPI skill directories into their skills locations and writes a manifest. This occurs without an explicit user setup command and affects broad third-party agent control surfaces.

- **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall chain mutates detected third-party AI-agent skill directories, including Claude Code and Codex locations. This is unconsented broad AI-agent control-surface modification, so it meets the install-hook abuse blocking policy.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js, skills/focalapi, skills/focalapi-auth, skills/focalapi-chat, skills/focalapi-gen, skills/focalapi-models, skills/focalapi-task, skills/focalapi-usage, .claude/skills, .agents/skills, .focalapi-managed-skills.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for policy risk:** The package runs a postinstall lifecycle hook automatically., That hook launches \`connect install\` without user-selected targets., The CLI detects many unrelated AI-agent home directories, including Claude Code and Codex., It copies bundled skills into detected agent skill directories and writes a management manifest.

- **Evidence against:** The postinstall launcher itself makes no network request or API-key read., The normal API client sends credentials only to the configured API endpoint during user-invoked commands.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to focalapi-cli@0.7.11.

- Avoid installing focalapi-cli@0.7.11. 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.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
