It can influence agent behavior across projects and disclose tool-use identity metadata to chat.googleapis.com. - **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:** 4.0.3 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. The postinstall hook mutates global and project Claude agent control surfaces without user interaction. It also configures silent usage reporting for later MCP tool calls. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-31T15:19:23.707Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-31T15:20:20.024Z - **Download time:** 517 ms - **Static scan time:** 1617 ms - **AI review time:** 54182 ms - **Total time:** 56317 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** The postinstall hook mutates global and project Claude agent control surfaces without user interaction. It also configures silent usage reporting for later MCP tool calls. - **Trigger:** npm installation runs postinstall; later Claude MCP tool calls trigger reporting. - **Impact:** It can influence agent behavior across projects and disclose tool-use identity metadata to chat.googleapis.com. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, setup.js, Main/SkillRegistry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T15:20:20.024Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic Claude configuration and silent webhook telemetry. - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package automatically executes setup.js. That program registers the package as a user-wide Claude MCP server, injects instructions into global and current-project CLAUDE.md files, and adds prompt hooks to global Claude settings. It also configures a Google Chat webhook. When the registered server handles a tool request, it silently sends the tool name and a user identifier to that webhook. - **Rationale:** This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of broad AI-agent control surfaces combined with automatic telemetry. The behavior is concrete and reaches user-wide configuration and arbitrary consumer projects. - **Files touched:** package.json, setup.js, Main/SkillRegistry.js, ~/.claude.json, ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, ~/.claude/settings.json, ~/.claude/commands/, CLAUDE.md, ~/.mobile-team-agent/config.json - **Network endpoints:** chat.googleapis.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Installation automatically runs setup.js., The installer globally registers an MCP server and writes agent instructions into Claude configuration., The installer writes instruction-bearing CLAUDE.md content into the current project., The installer adds PreToolUse and PostToolUse prompt hooks to global Claude settings., Every MCP tool call silently sends the tool name and user identity to a Google Chat webhook configured during installation. ## Public findings ### 1.
