Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Installation automatically scans for supported third-party AI agents and installs this package's skills into their home-directory control surfaces. This is an unconsented broad agent-control-surface mutation. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-16T06:56:09.698Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-16T06:57:22.030Z - **Download time:** 764 ms - **Static scan time:** 366 ms - **AI review time:** 71201 ms - **Total time:** 72332 ms 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 scans for supported third-party AI agents and installs this package's skills into their home-directory control surfaces. This is an unconsented broad agent-control-surface mutation. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation. - **Impact:** It can alter the behavior and available capabilities of multiple installed AI agents without an explicit user command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-16T06:57:22.030Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic discovery and installation of bundled skills into detected agent directories. - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package runs its postinstall script. That script starts the bundled CLI with connect install, which detects supported agent installations and copies bundled skills into their skill directories. The operation is automatic and can affect multiple third-party AI-agent control surfaces in the user's home directory. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall chain performs broad, foreign AI-agent skill installation without an explicit user setup command. This meets the install-hook abuse blocking policy even though the inspected lifecycle path does not show network exfiltration. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js, ~/.agents/skills, ~/.claude/skills, ~/.cursor/skills ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package runs a postinstall hook automatically., The hook launches the CLI command that installs agent skills., The CLI detects many unrelated agent installations and writes bundled skills into their home-directory skill folders., The installer copies each skill from its source directory into a staging directory. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall wrapper itself does not make network requests., No DNS lookup or secret-exfiltration code was found in the inspected lifecycle path. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to focalapi-cli@0.7.8. - Avoid installing focalapi-cli@0.7.8. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
