## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 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:** 0.1.76
- **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.

The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the README's flagged text describes release review status rather than attempting to influence this review. The inspected CLI and transport behavior is consistent with an explicitly configured local runner using its AI Gateway service.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-30T13:56:17.649Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-30T13:56:46.259Z
- **Download time:** 517 ms
- **Static scan time:** 1869 ms
- **AI review time:** 26223 ms
- **Total time:** 28610 ms

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 was identified. The package provides an explicitly invoked local runner CLI that communicates with its configured AI Gateway.

- **Trigger:** The CLI's direct invocation; daemon setup or runtime behavior requires an explicit command.

- **Impact:** No malicious impact identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T13:56:46.259Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** No malicious behavior was found in the inspected startup, setup, or transport paths.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the README's flagged text describes release review status rather than attempting to influence this review. The inspected CLI and transport behavior is consistent with an explicitly configured local runner using its AI Gateway service.

- **Network endpoints:** cloud.dev.service.ai-gateway.laravelvapor.org

### 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 defines a CLI bin and has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle script., The README's flagged passage discusses release review status; it does not direct or manipulate this security review., The configured default network endpoint is the AI Gateway MCP service., Daemon setup is an explicit CLI mode and checks requested integration and feature options., The CLI calls main only when invoked directly.
