A dependency installation can add agent instructions, framework configuration, and AI CLI integration files to a consumer project without an explicit setup command. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 3.24.7 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. An npm postinstall hook automatically modifies the consuming project’s AI-agent control surface. It installs framework assets and generates adapters for all supported AI CLIs. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-28T02:34:09.513Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-28T02:35:26.237Z - **Download time:** 763 ms - **Static scan time:** 1721 ms - **AI review time:** 74239 ms - **Total time:** 76724 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

It installs framework assets and generates adapters for all supported AI CLIs. - **Trigger:** Installing izanagi-ai as a dependency runs postinstall. - **Impact:** A dependency installation can add agent instructions, framework configuration, and AI CLI integration files to a consumer project without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/postinstall.js, dist/scripts/postinstall.js, dist/installer.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T02:35:26.237Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The bootstrap imports the lifecycle implementation, which uses INIT\_CWD as the consumer project and calls the installer with every pack and the all-adapters target. - **Attack narrative:** The package lifecycle runs during dependency installation, identifies the consumer project through INIT\_CWD, and automatically initializes its framework there. The initializer copies agent assets, writes project configuration, enables OpenCode to load package-authored instructions, and generates adapters for all supported AI CLI environments. This is an unconsented broad mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** The active postinstall lifecycle performs broad AI-agent configuration changes in the consumer project without an explicit user command. This meets the install-hook control-surface blocking policy. - **Files touched:** .agents, AGENTS.md, SYSTEM.md, .izanagi/izanagi.config.json, opencode.json, .claude, .codex, .cursor, .github, .kimi, .opencode ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The package declares an automatic postinstall hook., The bootstrap loader imports the package postinstall implementation., On dependency installation, the postinstall targets the consumer project's install directory., The postinstall installs every pack and all six AI CLI adapters automatically., The installer creates project agent assets, configuration, and an OpenCode instruction-loading configuration. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or external exfiltration was identified in the inspected lifecycle path., The lifecycle code checks whether the framework has already been initialized. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to izanagi-ai@3.24.7. - Avoid installing izanagi-ai@3.24.7. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
