ft-scout@9.0.5
FrontTerrain — The Onboarding Co-Pilot for New Codebases
AI Security Review
scanned 13d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection resolved the credential findings as intended Firebase authentication and signup verification, and the package manifest has no install lifecycle hook. The inspected runtime paths and dependency snapshots did not establish concrete attack behavior.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user runs the CLI login or signup command, or invokes an agent feature.
Impact
No confirmed attack surface was established from the inspected behavior.
Mechanism
Login and signup send credentials to Firebase Identity Toolkit; signup verification also sends the returned token to Firebase. The agent’s shell capability is part of its invoked CLI workflow.
AI rationale
Source inspection resolved the credential findings as intended Firebase authentication and signup verification, and the package manifest has no install lifecycle hook. The inspected runtime paths and dependency snapshots did not establish concrete attack behavior.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 96.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json defines CLI entrypoints and lists only test and build scripts; bin/ft.js imports the CLI source.
- Login and signup send entered credentials to Firebase Identity Toolkit, then save returned session tokens locally; signup updates the Firebase profile and requests email verification from Firebase.
- The welcome-email helper uses the signup token only for Firebase’s email-verification request; configured email-provider requests send the welcome message to the signup address.
- The agent is a CLI feature; its shell-command path can ask for confirmation in an interactive terminal.
- Inspected dependency snapshots expose prompt, styling, and command-parsing entrypoints with no install lifecycle scripts; the bundled archive analysis identifies CLI source members.
Evidence against
- The credential-related requests inspected target the package’s Firebase authentication and verification service, with login and signup callers supplying the credentials.
- No inspected source established an unconsented install-time action or an unrelated recipient for the authentication tokens.
