## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 28 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:** 0.2.93
- **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 install hook skips npm-installed copies and otherwise sets up the project’s own subpackages. The reviewed runtime network request checks this package’s version, while session-token forwarding is tied to remote-agent launch on the user’s configured machine.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T14:43:07.001Z

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 identified. Install and runtime behaviors inspected are consistent with a notebook server and its remote-agent feature.

- **Trigger:** The CLI starts the server; the update check runs at server startup. Token handoff occurs as part of a remote-agent launch.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T14:44:20.649Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The postinstall hook skips npm-installed copies. The update check requests this package’s latest version from the npm registry. The remote-agent endpoint forwards the session token through the configured reverse tunnel to the user’s machine.

- **Rationale:** The install hook skips npm-installed copies and otherwise sets up the project’s own subpackages. The reviewed runtime network request checks this package’s version, while session-token forwarding is tied to remote-agent launch on the user’s configured machine.

- **Files touched:** ~/.nebula/token

- **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/nebula-notebook/latest

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook is declared in package.json and exits immediately when installed under node\_modules; otherwise it installs and builds the package’s own subpackages., The CLI starts the bundled server and forwards the user’s arguments and environment., The server’s update check queries the npm registry for this package’s latest version; it is described as notify-only and never auto-installs., The session-token handoff requires a configured remote agent and is described as running right before a remote launch, sending the browser session token to the user’s own machine.

- **Evidence against:** The notebook server uses child processes for expected functions such as Python, kernel, terminal, and GPU management., The remote-agent flow handles a session token, but sends it over the configured reverse tunnel to the user’s machine as part of remote-agent launch., The update check contacts registry.npmjs.org at runtime, but the source shows it checks this package’s version and does not send user or project data.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to nebula-notebook@0.2.93.

- Review the evidence and your use of nebula-notebook@0.2.93 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.
