## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 22 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Staged Payload Carrier
- **Selected version:** 11.0.14
- **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 concrete malicious install-time behavior or credential theft was confirmed. However, unverified runtime acquisition of an executable is a material remote payload-staging risk.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 85.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-10T06:08:06.276Z
- **Finished:** 2026-08-10T06:09:43.740Z
- **Download time:** 1258 ms
- **Static scan time:** 4259 ms
- **AI review time:** 91945 ms
- **Total time:** 97464 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 Windows first interactive launch, the CLI can download and make executable a native pager. The inspected path does not verify the downloaded artifact's hash or signature.

- **Trigger:** First interactive CLI launch on Windows, unless CLAVUE\_SKIP\_NATIVE\_DOWNLOAD is set.

- **Impact:** A compromised download source or locally supplied download-URL environment override could stage code for execution.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-pager.mjs, dist/cli.js, dist/native/manifest.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T06:09:43.740Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** runtime download and execution staging of a native binary

- **Rationale:** No concrete malicious install-time behavior or credential theft was confirmed. However, unverified runtime acquisition of an executable is a material remote payload-staging risk.

- **Files touched:** dist/cli.js, scripts/postinstall-pager.mjs, dist/native/clavue-pager\*, ~/.clavue/native/\<platform-pager\>

- **Network endpoints:** https://www.clavue.com/downloads/native

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 85.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** dist/cli.js downloads a native pager on Windows at first launch., The download is written to the Clavue native cache and chmodded executable; no integrity check was found in the inspected download path., The default download base is https://www.clavue.com/downloads/native and an environment URL override is supported., package.json runs postinstall, although its inspected script only chmods package-local pager files.

- **Evidence against:** scripts/postinstall-pager.mjs performs no network access, config mutation, or foreign agent-control write., The postinstall action is limited to dist/native/clavue-pager\* within the installed package., dist/openai-responses-adapter.js routes user-configured provider credentials to provider APIs; no unrelated credential-exfiltration sink was confirmed., No unconsented install-time foreign/broad AI-agent control-surface mutation was found.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to iclavue@11.0.14.

- Review the evidence and your use of iclavue@11.0.14 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.
