Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 9 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution - **Selected version:** 2.0.2480 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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. No lifecycle hook or import-time execution establishes malicious installation behavior. However, explicit execution installs remotely sourced agent instructions and executes a dynamically fetched native binary, so it warrants a warning. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-05T20:03:16.998Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-05T20:03:49.678Z - **Download time:** 256 ms - **Static scan time:** 160 ms - **AI review time:** 32264 ms - **Total time:** 32680 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:** A user invocation bootstraps remote wasm and may download and execute a native spool daemon. It also installs/refreshes agent skills and wires project AI-agent instruction files. - **Trigger:** Running gm-plugkit (default CLI or bootstrap entrypoint). - **Impact:** Remote release content can execute locally and influence agent behavior in the invoked project and user skill directories. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, cli.js, bootstrap.js, bootstrap-shared.js, SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T20:03:49.678Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** remote binary bootstrap plus AI-agent skill/config mutation - **Rationale:** No lifecycle hook or import-time execution establishes malicious installation behavior. However, explicit execution installs remotely sourced agent instructions and executes a dynamically fetched native binary, so it warrants a warning. - **Files touched:** ~/.gm-tools/agentplug-runner, ~/.agents/skills/\/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/\/SKILL.md, \/.gm/next-step.md, \/CLAUDE.md, \/AGENTS.md - **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com/repos/AnEntrypoint/agentplug-bin/releases/latest, https://github.com/AnEntrypoint/agentplug-bin/releases/download/\, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AnEntrypoint/gm/main/skills/\/SKILL.md, https://registry.npmjs.org/gm-plugkit/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** bootstrap.js downloads platform-native agentplug-runner then executes it as a daemon., bootstrap.js fetches remote skill names/content and writes them into ~/.agents and ~/.claude skill directories., bootstrap-shared.js edits project CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md to load .gm instructions., SKILL.md contains coercive agent-continuation and standing-approval instructions. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall scripts., Network, writes, and daemon launch occur only after CLI/bootstrap invocation; index.js has no import-time action., Downloaded wasm/native runner paths are package-aligned and SHA-checked, though hashes come from the same remote release. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to gm-plugkit@2.0.2480. - Review the evidence and your use of gm-plugkit@2.0.2480 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.
