## 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:** 0.2.95
- **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.

Review flagged AI-agent configuration or capability changes. This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior.

## Latest scan

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:** A user running pantheon connect enables an MCP server and writes configuration and skill files for multiple AI coding agents. It also connects to the Pantheon service and can move a configured vault workspace aside.

- **Trigger:** The user runs pantheon connect with a pairing code, or starts the configured MCP server.

- **Impact:** It can extend several AI agents with instructions that archive conversations and files; a mistaken or untrusted setup can expose those materials to the configured service.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/pantheon.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T15:03:49.213Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** User-invoked multi-agent configuration and conversation-vault connection.

- **Rationale:** The package is not malicious by the available source evidence because it has no lifecycle trigger and its behavior is product-aligned. Its explicit multi-agent configuration and conversation archival capability warrants a warning.

- **Files touched:** ~/.cursor/mcp.json, ~/.claude.json, ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.agents/skills/pantheon/SKILL.md, ~/.codex/skills/pantheon/SKILL.md

- **Network endpoints:** https://www.pantheonvault.space

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 85.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The user-run connect command automatically invokes MCP client installation., Installation writes MCP settings and agent skills for several coding-agent products., The CLI contacts the Pantheon service during pairing., It can rename a pre-existing non-Git vault workspace before connecting.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no install lifecycle hook; execution requires the pantheon CLI., The network service and agent configuration behavior are consistent with the stated handoff product., No remote payload execution was found; the reported dynamic-code primitive is bundled dependency code.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to pantheon-cli@0.2.95.

- Review the evidence and your use of pantheon-cli@0.2.95 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
