Unconsented user-wide AI-agent control-surface mutation and durable memory-file manipulation. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.2.0 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. On package installation, the lifecycle hook writes executable tool files into the user-wide OpenCode tools directory. Those tools extend an AI agent with persistent-memory read, write, search, and deletion capabilities. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T12:39:56.526Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T12:40:56.804Z - **Download time:** 505 ms - **Static scan time:** 94 ms - **AI review time:** 59679 ms - **Total time:** 60278 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

Those tools extend an AI agent with persistent-memory read, write, search, and deletion capabilities. - **Trigger:** npm installation of the package invokes postinstall. - **Impact:** Unconsented user-wide AI-agent control-surface mutation and durable memory-file manipulation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, tools/memory\_write.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T12:40:56.804Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic copying of agent-callable tools into the OpenCode configuration directory. - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package automatically runs postinstall. It creates the user-wide OpenCode tools directory and copies every bundled TypeScript tool into it, making capabilities available beyond the installed package directory without an explicit setup command. The copied tools can create or overwrite persistent global and project memory files. No network theft or remote payload behavior was found, but the unconsented lifecycle mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface meets the blocking policy. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall hook mutates a user-wide OpenCode tool control surface by installing agent-callable code. This is a concrete install-hook abuse despite the absence of network exfiltration. - **Files touched:** tools/\*.ts, ~/.config/opencode/tools/\*.ts, ~/.config/opencode/memory/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The package declares an automatic postinstall lifecycle hook., That hook creates the user-wide OpenCode tools directory and copies every shipped TypeScript tool into it without an explicit user command., The installed tools can write and delete persistent global or project memory files, expanding the agent control surface., The tool maps global-scope memory to the user's OpenCode configuration directory. - **Evidence against:** No network endpoints, download logic, credential harvesting, or payload execution were found., The memory filenames are restricted to Markdown filenames, limiting path traversal. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to opencode-memd@0.2.0. - Avoid installing opencode-memd@0.2.0. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
