## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.10.38
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Inspected the manifest, lifecycle hook, required flagged runtime files, and login and upgrade callers. The flagged process and network operations are bounded to package setup or explicit product actions, with no confirmed malicious behavior.

## Latest scan

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:** No attack surface was identified. The inspected lifecycle and runtime behaviors align with package setup, user-invoked login and upgrade, local port discovery, and the Antigravity integration.

- **Trigger:** Installation runs the postinstall helper-permission adjustment; login and upgrade require explicit CLI commands, while host behavior runs when the user starts the host.

- **Impact:** No unconsented credential disclosure, destructive behavior, or other concrete attack was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T02:48:17.132Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook adjusts permissions for node-pty helpers. Login returns credentials through a loopback callback and stores them locally; host credentials are restricted to the official gateway.

- **Rationale:** Inspected the manifest, lifecycle hook, required flagged runtime files, and login and upgrade callers. The flagged process and network operations are bounded to package setup or explicit product actions, with no confirmed malicious behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest runs a postinstall script that sets executable permissions on node-pty helper files., Login is an explicit CLI command; it uses a loopback callback and saves the returned tokens locally., The host forwards account tokens only when configured for the official gateway., The npm upgrade command runs only through the explicit upgrade command., The host port scanner uses fixed local listener inspection commands., Antigravity ACP metadata specifies Google-hosted release files and SHA-256 values.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to linkshell-cli@0.10.38.

- Review the evidence and your use of linkshell-cli@0.10.38 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
