Injected skill instructions can be loaded by installed AI-agent runtimes. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 1.1.1 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. npm postinstall automatically copies a runtime-loadable skill into detected third-party AI-agent directories.

It also creates a project .agents/skills fallback without an explicit CLI command. - **Trigger:** npm install or npm install -g - **Impact:** Injected skill instructions can be loaded by installed AI-agent runtimes. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install.js, skills/wiki-manager/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-17T05:35:00.022Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall recursive skill deployment into agent control surfaces - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package invokes its postinstall script. The script detects several agent-runtime directories and force-copies its bundled wiki-manager skill into them; on a normal project install it creates .agents/skills when no runtime folder exists. These are runtime-loaded AI-agent control surfaces, modified without a user invoking the package CLI. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete, unconsented postinstall mutation of broad foreign AI-agent control surfaces. Lack of exfiltration does not remove the install-time agent-control hijack behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/install.js, skills/wiki-manager, project/.claude/skills/wiki-manager, project/.opencode/skills/wiki-manager, project/.agents/skills/wiki-manager, project/.cursor/skills/wiki-manager ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs scripts/install.js automatically via postinstall., Postinstall declares and targets multiple foreign agent skill roots, including Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, and Windsurf., It recursively overwrites wiki-manager into each detected runtime skills directory., On ordinary project installs with no detected runtime, it creates .agents/skills and installs the skill there. - **Evidence against:** No network client, credential harvesting, or exfiltration code was found in inspected source., The bundled Python helper only performs local evidence and git-diff checks. ## Public findings ### 1.
