focalapi-cli@0.7.4

让任意 AI Agent 直接调用 focalapi 创作模型的命令行工具

AI Security Review

scanned 21d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. npm postinstall runs connect install, which copies bundled FocalAPI skills into every detected third-party agent skills directory. Those skills tell the agent to route image and video work to this CLI even when the user never named FocalAPI.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Installing or reinstalling the package with lifecycle scripts enabled, including a global npm install.

Impact

After the agent restarts, creative requests can be steered to FocalAPI without a separate connect command, changing how other products handle those tasks.

Mechanism

unconsented postinstall write of skills into foreign agent control surfaces

Policy narrative

After npm install, postinstall runs the CLI connect install command with no prompt. That command finds installed agents and copies bundled FocalAPI skill files into their global skills folders, including Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and GitHub Copilot. The skills tell the agent to send image and video work to the FocalAPI CLI even when the user never named FocalAPI. Restarting the agent then changes how it routes creative tasks. Installing this package as a normal dependency therefore mutates other products' agent control surfaces without a separate user command.

AI rationale

The postinstall hook automatically writes branded skills into many third-party agent skill directories. That is unconsented install-time mutation of a foreign, broad AI-agent control surface, so the package should be blocked even though the rest of the CLI looks like a normal FocalAPI client.
