## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 2.0.2531
- **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.

The package has a concrete, broad AI-agent configuration and remote-runner capability. Source does not show unconsented install-time execution, credential theft, or exfiltration, so blocking is not warranted under the stated policy.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-08T08:53:00.307Z
- **Finished:** 2026-08-08T08:53:54.915Z

- **Static scan time:** 188 ms
- **AI review time:** 53668 ms
- **Total time:** 54608 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:** An explicit gm-plugkit CLI run modifies the active project's agent instruction wiring and installs skill instructions into two user-wide AI-agent directories. It also downloads and executes a detached native runner.

- **Trigger:** User runs gm-plugkit CLI or calls ensureReady.

- **Impact:** Can alter AI-agent behavior across projects and execute a remotely supplied native daemon.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, cli.js, bootstrap.js, bootstrap-shared.js, index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T08:53:54.915Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** user-invoked agent configuration mutation plus remote binary bootstrap

- **Rationale:** The package has a concrete, broad AI-agent configuration and remote-runner capability. Source does not show unconsented install-time execution, credential theft, or exfiltration, so blocking is not warranted under the stated policy.

- **Files touched:** .gm/next-step.md, .gm/instructions/\*\*, CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, ~/.agents/skills/\<skill\>/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/\<skill\>/SKILL.md, ~/.gm-tools/agentplug-runner, .gm/exec-spool/.watcher.log

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com/repos/AnEntrypoint/agentplug-bin/releases/latest, https://github.com/AnEntrypoint/agentplug-bin/releases/download/${tag}/${assetName}, https://api.github.com/repos/AnEntrypoint/gm/contents/skills?ref=main, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AnEntrypoint/gm/main/skills/${skillName}/SKILL.md

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** bootstrap.js: ensureReady writes project .gm wiring and invokes skill refresh., bootstrap.js: refresh writes SKILL.md files to ~/.agents and ~/.claude., bootstrap.js: fetches a runner binary then starts it as a detached daemon., bootstrap.js: SHA is fetched from the same remote release as the binary., bootstrap-shared.js: modifies CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md in the active project.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle hook., All risky actions require explicit CLI/import invocation; no import-time execution in index.js., No credential harvesting or source-side data exfiltration found.

## Affected versions and remediation
