## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 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:** 0.15.1
- **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.

Source inspection found a global-install notice, a separate setup flow, and URL-bound credential use. The scanner’s credential-forwarding hint is not supported as an attack by these inspected paths.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%

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 confirmed attack surface was identified in the inspected install and credential flows. The postinstall hook prints agent setup guidance only for global installs; setup and sign-in are separate actions.

- **Trigger:** Package installation triggers the postinstall notice; setup and sign-in require a later command or interactive choice.

- **Impact:** The inspected code does not establish unconsented agent configuration changes or forwarding a saved credential to a different API URL.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T02:16:38.963Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The notice writes to standard output. API requests use the configured memgineering API URL, and saved credentials are used only when their stored URL matches it.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found a global-install notice, a separate setup flow, and URL-bound credential use. The scanner’s credential-forwarding hint is not supported as an attack by these inspected paths.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/index.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.memgineering.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs a postinstall script; that script prints setup guidance only when npm reports a global install., Stored credentials are used only when their saved API URL matches the current API URL; interactive setup asks whether to sign in., The required agent integration location describes how the package organizes its guidance, without establishing an attack.

- **Evidence against:** The postinstall hook does not perform setup or modify agent configuration; the setup command is separate., The API defaults to the package’s hosted service, and the inspected credential flow does not forward a saved token after the configured API URL changes.

import { mkdir as mkdir2, readFile as readFile2, rename, rm as rm2, writeFile as writeFile2 } from "fs/promises";
await writeFile2(tmp, body, { encoding: "utf8", mode: 384 });
