AI Security Review

scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package is not shown to be malicious at install time, but its default automatic crash reporting can transmit error-derived content and create remote issues using ambient GitHub credentials. Its AI-agent configuration mutation is explicit-command, project-local setup rather than an unconsented lifecycle hijack.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.

Trigger

Run monomind; an uncaught exception triggers reporting. Run monomind init or monomind guidance setup to create Claude integration files.

Impact

Potential disclosure of crash-stack content and unprompted GitHub issue creation under the user's existing authentication.

Mechanism

default crash-report submission and explicit project-local agent extension setup

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

bin/cli.js enables crash reporting by default on uncaught errors.
Crash reports include error stacks and are sent using gh or GITHUB_TOKEN.
init writes Claude Code hooks, permissions, and .mcp.json when explicitly invoked.
README.md contains an ignore-instructions string only as a safety-check example.

Evidence against

package.json postinstall only deletes AppleDouble ._* files under node_modules.
No install hook imports package code or contacts a network endpoint.
Claude/MCP configuration writes are behind explicit monomind init or guidance setup commands.
condition-evaluator restricts tokens before using new Function.
