The package is a user-invoked AI agent orchestration CLI that installs first-party agent rules/skills into broad assistant config directories and can run generated shell scripts and local AI CLIs with elevated permission flags. This is a real agent control-surface lifecycle risk but not confirmed install-time malware. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-05T12:58:10.369Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-05T12:58:52.370Z - **Download time:** 504 ms - **Static scan time:** 789 ms - **AI review time:** 40707 ms - **Total time:** 42001 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** The package is a user-invoked AI agent orchestration CLI that installs first-party agent rules/skills into broad assistant config directories and can run generated shell scripts and local AI CLIs with elevated permission flags. This is a real agent control-surface lifecycle risk but not confirmed install-time malware. - **Trigger:** User runs imhcode/init, imhcode execute/test, or imhcode agent run --live - **Impact:** May overwrite assistant instructions/skills and run project task scripts or local agent CLIs with broad permissions under user control. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/imhcode.js, src/orchestrator/executor.ts, skills/ui-ux-pro-max/cli/src/utils/github.ts, skills/ui-ux-pro-max/cli/src/utils/template.ts, skills/ui-ux-pro-max/cli/src/commands/init.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-05T12:58:52.370Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** explicit CLI setup of assistant configs plus delegated shell/AI CLI execution - **Rationale:** Static inspection confirms broad AI-agent config mutation and dangerous delegated execution only after explicit user CLI actions, with no npm install hook or concrete exfiltration/destructive chain. Under the provided policy this warrants a warning, not a publish block. - **Files touched:** ~/.imhcode/, ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, ~/.claude/AGENTS.md, ~/.claude/skills/, ~/.gemini/CLAUDE.md, ~/.gemini/AGENTS.md, ~/.gemini/skills/, ~/.copilot/CLAUDE.md, ~/.copilot/AGENTS.md, ~/.copilot/skills/, ~/.local/bin/imhcode, ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, docs/sprint-\*/run\_all\_tasks.sh, .imhcode/commands/sprint-\*/task\_\*.sh - **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com, https://github.com/nextlevelbuilder/ui-ux-pro-max-skill/archive/refs/tags/\.zip ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** bin/imhcode.js default/init path copies AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and skills into ~/.claude, ~/.gemini, ~/.copilot, bin/imhcode.js init overwrites ~/.imhcode contents and can append PATH exports to shell rc files, src/orchestrator/executor.ts runs local AI CLIs; Codex uses --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox and OpenCode uses --dangerously-skip-permissions, bin/imhcode.js execute/test chmod and run generated docs/sprint-\*/run\_all\_tasks.sh scripts, skills/ui-ux-pro-max/cli/src/utils/github.ts can fetch releases from api.github.com/github.com for explicit installer/update flows - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle hooks, Risky writes are tied to explicit CLI commands, not npm install-time execution, No confirmed credential harvesting or environment secret exfiltration in inspected entrypoints, Network use found is package-aligned GitHub release fetching or external AI CLI execution by user request, No hidden native binary loader or import-time payload execution confirmed ## Public findings ### 1.
