focalapi-cli@1.0.4

让任意 AI Agent 直接调用 focalapi 创作模型的命令行工具

AI Security Review

scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Automatic postinstall copies first-party FocalAPI skills into detected third-party agent skill directories, which is unconsented install-time agent extension rather than secret theft or remote code. Scanner DNS and credential-redirect labels do not match the source: the dummy focalapi.invalid origin is path validation, and API keys are sent only on user-invoked auth to api.focalapi.com.

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

npm install running the postinstall script, or a later focalapi connect install command.

Impact

Installed agents may start routing image and video work through FocalAPI after install, without changing the agent's primary model provider.

Mechanism

unattended first-party skill drop into foreign agent skill directories

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 86.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

package.json postinstall runs scripts/postinstall.cjs on npm install.
postinstall spawns dist/cli.js connect install --json, which copies bundled focalapi-* skills into every detected agent skills directory.
The install catalog targets many third-party agents under the user home directory, including Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor.
Bundled skills tell those agents to send creative work through FocalAPI even when the user does not name it.

Evidence against

Writes are limited to namespaced focalapi-* skill folders plus a package-owned manifest; uninstall keeps user-modified skills.
postinstall does not read API keys, change agent providers, or call the network; CI and FOCALAPI_SKIP_POSTINSTALL=1 skip it.
HTTP is to api.focalapi.com and the npm registry; https://focalapi.invalid is a dummy origin for path checks, not DNS exfiltration.
auth login is a user command that stores keys in ~/.focalapi/config.json after checking them against the package API.
No eval, remote payload execution, or runtime self-dependency install chain.
