## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 11 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:** 0.8.1
- **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 lifecycle child process is a package-aligned local Prisma generate operation. Networked MCP functionality is explicitly user-invoked, targets a configured server, and requires bearer authentication for writes.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-04T09:29:32.054Z

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 confirmed malicious attack surface. The install hook generates Prisma client code; explicit CLI commands start a local server or token-gated MCP client.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall or explicit ocean-brain serve/mcp command

- **Impact:** No unconsented exfiltration, persistence, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation established.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-prisma.mjs, dist/index.js, dist/mcp.js, server/dist/start.js, server/dist/modules/mcp-auth.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-04T09:30:04.370Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** local Prisma generation and authenticated requests to configured Ocean Brain server

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle child process is a package-aligned local Prisma generate operation. Networked MCP functionality is explicitly user-invoked, targets a configured server, and requires bearer authentication for writes.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall-prisma.mjs, server/prisma/schema.prisma, dist/index.js, dist/mcp.js, server/dist/start.js, server/dist/modules/prisma-runtime.js

- **Network endpoints:** http://localhost:6683

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence against:** package.json postinstall only invokes bundled Prisma generation., scripts/postinstall-prisma.mjs resolves Prisma locally and runs prisma generate., dist/index.js starts server only on explicit CLI invocation., dist/mcp.js sends requests only to user-selected server, defaulting to localhost., MCP write tools require an explicitly supplied bearer token., No AI-agent config writes, credential harvesting, remote payload loading, or eval found in inspected server/CLI source.
