## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 5.71.4
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Installation mutates the package-owned ~/.natureco area and runs its doctor command. Normal CLI startup can create package-owned symlinks and perform an opt-out npm registry update check.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-07-29T20:18:33.922Z

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:** Installation mutates the package-owned ~/.natureco area and runs its doctor command. Normal CLI startup can create package-owned symlinks and perform an opt-out npm registry update check.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall; subsequent natureco CLI invocation

- **Impact:** Unconsented package-owned home-directory mutation; no confirmed credential exfiltration or foreign agent-control hijack.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, bin/natureco.js, src/utils/builtin-links.js, src/utils/update-check.js, src/tools/phone\_control\_enhanced.js, src/tools/voice\_chat.js, src/commands/update.js, src/commands/migrate.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-29T20:19:13.501Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** first-party state setup, symlink creation, and update check

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle behavior is intrusive but limited to the vendor-owned ~/.natureco namespace, so it does not meet the blocking policy. Explicit runtime tools have substantial capabilities, but their network and device actions are user-triggered and package-aligned.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, bin/natureco.js, src/utils/builtin-links.js, src/utils/update-check.js, ~/.natureco

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/natureco-cli/latest

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** package.json defines postinstall., scripts/postinstall.js creates ~/.natureco subdirectories during install., postinstall invokes bin/natureco.js doctor, which imports startup hooks., src/utils/builtin-links.js creates ~/.natureco symlinks to package skills/tools., src/utils/update-check.js may query registry.npmjs.org when CLI startup is TTY.

- **Evidence against:** No credential or environment harvesting was sent to an unrelated endpoint., phone\_control\_enhanced sends configured credentials only to Pushover/Twilio for explicit tool actions., voice\_chat sends recorded audio to api.openai.com only after explicit record action., No foreign AI-agent configuration path is mutated by postinstall., Runtime update install and migration behavior require explicit CLI commands.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to natureco-cli@5.71.4.

- Review the evidence and your use of natureco-cli@5.71.4 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
