## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 18 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.9.260
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected source does not establish malicious behavior, and the manifest has no automatic install hook. Required runtime dependencies remain unresolved or only partly inspected, so this review cannot support a clean verdict.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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 attack was identified in the inspected package source. Some selected runtime dependency behavior remains unresolved, so a clean verdict is not supported.

- **Trigger:** The package's runtime entrypoint loads its agent SDK dependency; code-server setup runs when the server needs that component.

- **Impact:** The reviewed excerpts do not establish credential theft or another attack; unresolved runtime dependency behavior prevents a complete assessment.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T14:12:52.189Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The inspected source uses an agent SDK and invokes the official code-server installation script through a shell when the binary is absent.

- **Rationale:** The inspected source does not establish malicious behavior, and the manifest has no automatic install hook. Required runtime dependencies remain unresolved or only partly inspected, so this review cannot support a clean verdict.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.js, dist/claude-llm.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-670cb873-4131-421d-a242-789e8fa84d7b/0/npm-linux/package.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://code-server.dev/install.sh

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json defines prepublishOnly as a build command and declares the Anthropic agent SDK and LiveKit dependencies., dist/claude-llm.js imports the agent SDK, and the available SDK manifest identifies sdk.mjs as its runtime entry point; the full dependency runtime chain remains unresolved., dist/index.js runs the code-server installer through a shell when code-server is missing; this is a sensitive installation behavior, but the inspected source does not establish an attack.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The inspected upload code sends artifacts to a frontend-configured upload endpoint; no unrelated credential recipient was established.

## Affected versions and remediation
