## 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:** 2.0.2568
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Review flagged AI-agent configuration or capability changes. This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Running the CLI provisions project and user-level AI-agent instruction surfaces, including remotely fetched skill text, then starts a detached runner. No install-time execution occurs.

- **Trigger:** User runs gm-plugkit (for example its documented bun x command).

- **Impact:** A remote repository's mutable instruction content can be installed into ~/.agents and ~/.claude and loaded by project agent configuration.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T20:45:30.512Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** remote skill installation and agent-control-surface rewiring

- **Rationale:** The package implements an explicit-user-command agent setup path with mutable remote instruction ingestion and global agent-skill writes. This is a material control-surface risk, but policy reserves blocking for unconsented install-time foreign/broad mutation or another concrete malicious chain.

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

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com/repos/AnEntrypoint/gm/contents/skills?ref=main, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AnEntrypoint/gm/main/skills/\<skill\>/SKILL.md, https://github.com/AnEntrypoint/agentplug-bin/releases/download/\<tag\>

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** bootstrap.js: ensureReady runs on CLI bootstrap and rewrites project agent-control files., bootstrap-shared.js: ensureNextStepWiring creates/edits CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md to load .gm instructions., bootstrap.js: ensureSkillMdFresh fetches SKILL.md files from GitHub main and writes them to ~/.agents/skills and ~/.claude/skills., bootstrap.js: CLI flow downloads and executes agentplug-runner as a detached spool daemon., SKILL.md contains imperative agent-behavior instructions and is installed into agent skill directories.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Network sources are named AnEntrypoint GitHub/npm endpoints; no credential harvesting or exfiltration is present., Downloaded WASM and runner paths perform SHA-256 comparisons before use., Control-surface mutation is reached through the explicit gm-plugkit CLI path, not package import/install.

## Public findings

### 7. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 8. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 9. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 85.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 10. High: Known Malware Source Similarity

- **Confidence:** 97.0%
- **Path:** cli.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/gm-plugkit@2.0.2568/cli.js>)

Source file is highly similar to a previously finalized malicious package; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = normalized_sha256
matchedPackage = gm-plugkit@2.0.2547
matchedPath = cli.js
matchedIdentity = npm:Z20tcGx1Z2tpdA:2.0.2547
similarity = 1.000
summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source
