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 postinstall hook installs this package's own FocalAPI skills into detected agent skill directories, which is first-party agent extension setup rather than malware. Source shows no DNS exfil, unofficial credential redirect, or other hidden attack chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-17T11:15:57.462Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-17T11:19:19.595Z - **Download time:** 255 ms - **Static scan time:** 415 ms - **AI review time:** 201462 ms - **Total time:** 202133 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:** After npm install, postinstall runs connect install and copies this package's FocalAPI skills into any detected third-party agent skills directories. That is first-party agent extension setup, not hidden credential theft or DNS exfiltration. - **Trigger:** npm install of focalapi-cli when lifecycle scripts run and FOCALAPI\_SKIP\_POSTINSTALL is unset. - **Impact:** Agents such as Claude Code or Cursor may load FocalAPI routing skills after restart without a separate connect command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js, skills/focalapi/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-17T11:19:19.595Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall spawns the CLI to copy bundled skills into detected agent skill folders - **Rationale:** The postinstall hook installs this package's own FocalAPI skills into detected agent skill directories, which is first-party agent extension setup rather than malware. Source shows no DNS exfil, unofficial credential redirect, or other hidden attack chain. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js, skills/focalapi/SKILL.md, .claude/skills, .cursor/skills, .agents/skills, .focalapi-managed-skills.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** npm postinstall runs scripts/postinstall.cjs, which spawns dist/cli.js connect install --json unless FOCALAPI\_SKIP\_POSTINSTALL or CI is set., connect install copies bundled focalapi-\* skills into detected third-party agent skill directories such as .claude/skills and .cursor/skills., The primary bundled skill tells agents to route creative work through FocalAPI even when the user does not name it., Install-time writes are local skill drops with a managed-skills manifest; they do not change agent provider settings files. - **Evidence against:** No DNS lookups, eval, or runtime self-dependency; scanner DNS-exfil and unofficial-gateway labels do not match this source., Network use is user-invoked CLI traffic to https://api.focalapi.com (and an npm version check); postinstall does not read API keys or call the network., Skills and connect code are first-party FocalAPI extensions with a skip flag, CI skip, and uninstall that only removes unmodified managed skills. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to focalapi-cli@1.0.1. - Review the evidence and your use of focalapi-cli@1.0.1 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
