## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.9.230
- **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.

The package has an explicit-user-command agent configuration capability and a conditionally protected import route. That merits a warning, but static inspection did not establish malicious intent or an automatic attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-27T15:11:31.001Z
- **Finished:** 2026-09-27T15:12:47.562Z
- **Download time:** 502 ms
- **Static scan time:** 708 ms
- **AI review time:** 75350 ms
- **Total time:** 76561 ms

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:** The launched agent can read, import, and alter data in the user's Claude configuration area. No automatic install-time attack was identified.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the package's CLI or its local server receives a session-import request.

- **Impact:** A user-enabled deployment can alter or expose Claude session and skill data; no confirmed unconsented attack surface was established.

- **Evidence paths:** bin/recall.js, dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T15:12:47.562Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The package reads Claude session data, imports archives into the Claude projects area, and the recall command may create a Claude-directory symlink.

- **Rationale:** The package has an explicit-user-command agent configuration capability and a conditionally protected import route. That merits a warning, but static inspection did not establish malicious intent or an automatic attack.

- **Files touched:** bin/recall.js, dist/index.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest defines development and CLI-related scripts., The package reads Claude authentication and session data from the user's Claude directory., The runtime centrally loads Claude skills and computes directories under the Claude projects tree., Its HTTP server accepts a session-import archive intended for extraction into the Claude projects directory, with authentication enforced only when a sync token is configured., The explicit recall command can create a home Claude-directory symlink to a workspace directory., No automatic npm install lifecycle hook was found in the inspected manifest.

- **Evidence against:** The observed Claude-directory mutation is reached through an explicit command, not an npm install hook., The session import route conditionally checks a configured bearer token., No hidden external endpoint, credential send operation, or remote payload execution was identified.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to osborn@0.9.230.

- Review the evidence and your use of osborn@0.9.230 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
