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. On npm installation, the package scans the user home directory for numerous AI agents and installs its bundled skills into each detected agent's skills directory. This modifies foreign AI-agent control surfaces without an explicit user command. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-17T20:33:33.745Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-17T20:34:41.453Z - **Download time:** 259 ms - **Static scan time:** 445 ms - **AI review time:** 67003 ms - **Total time:** 67708 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:** On npm installation, the package scans the user home directory for numerous AI agents and installs its bundled skills into each detected agent's skills directory. This modifies foreign AI-agent control surfaces without an explicit user command. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall - **Impact:** Installed skills can influence the behavior of multiple local AI agents. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-17T20:34:41.453Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic broad AI-agent skill installation - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package automatically runs a CLI command that finds supported AI agents under the user's home directory. It creates their skills directories as needed and copies bundled focalapi skills there, affecting multiple third-party agent environments without an explicit setup command. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall hook reaches broad foreign AI-agent control surfaces and writes package-provided skills into them. This is concrete unconsented install-hook abuse even though the inspected postinstall script does not itself make network requests. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/cli.js, ~/\/skills/focalapi\*, ~/\/skills/.focalapi-managed-skills.json ### 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., That hook starts the CLI's connect install command without user input., The CLI detects a broad list of third-party AI-agent directories in the user home directory., It copies bundled skills into every detected agent skills directory. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall script itself makes no network request., The inspected network client sends API keys only as authorization for its configured API base URL. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to focalapi-cli@1.1.0. - Avoid installing focalapi-cli@1.1.0. 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.
