## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No confirmed attack was identified. The package is a transparent native-binary installer using its own GitHub releases.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall or explicit CLI invocation activates native installation.

- **Impact:** Package-aligned software installation occurs; the inspected source establishes no malicious effect, although downloaded binary behavior is outside this snapshot.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-01T01:21:53.406Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The shim downloads a platform-specific binary, writes it into the installation directory, sets executable permissions where applicable, and runs its install command.

- **Rationale:** The inspected lifecycle and CLI behavior implement a straightforward installer for the package's own native releases. Remote binary execution alone does not establish malicious intent or a concrete attack in this source.

- **Files touched:** ~/.local/bin

- **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/nuroctane/nur-cli/releases

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs bin.js --ensure during postinstall and declares no runtime dependencies., bin.js downloads native releases from the package's nuroctane/nur-cli GitHub repository., The shim invokes the downloaded binary with the install argument; automatic setup skips an existing binary., Full shim inspection found no credential harvesting, exfiltration, obfuscation, or direct AI-agent configuration mutation.

- **Evidence against:** Downloaded binaries are executed without checksum verification, and their implementation is absent from this snapshot.

## Affected versions and remediation
