## Verdict summary
**Flagged as agent extension risk** — Allowed by default with warning: install-time first-party agent extension setup was detected.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only agent extension risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Agent extension lifecycle risk
- **Selected version:** 0.14.0
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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 is not shown to be malicious, but its automatic postinstall modifies a Claude Code control surface and installs Python dependencies. This fits a guarded first-party agent extension lifecycle risk that should be warned on rather than blocked.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%

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:** Installing the package automatically changes the consumer project's Claude Code skill directory and attempts Python dependency installation. This is a first-party agent extension setup, but it occurs through postinstall without a separate user command.

- **Trigger:** npm install process-ai

- **Impact:** It can add process-ai slash-command instructions to a project and download Python packages during installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/postinstall.js, dist/toolkit/src/installer/orchestrator.js, dist/toolkit/adapters/claude-code/skill-copy.js, dist/toolkit/src/installer/python-deps.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T17:56:04.379Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Postinstall invokes the CLI installer, which copies skills and runs pip.

- **Rationale:** The package is not shown to be malicious, but its automatic postinstall modifies a Claude Code control surface and installs Python dependencies. This fits a guarded first-party agent extension lifecycle risk that should be warned on rather than blocked.

- **Files touched:** bin/postinstall.js, dist/bin/process-ai.js, .claude/skills/process-ai/SKILL.md, .process-ai/, scripts/requirements-ingest.txt

- **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The npm postinstall hook launches the package installer in the consumer project., The installer automatically copies process-ai Claude Code skills and runs pip to install ingestion dependencies., The CLI makes a non-blocking npm registry version check and writes a local cache.

- **Evidence against:** No runtime dependency on process-ai itself is declared., The inspected code scopes skill writes to the target project's .claude directory and rejects symlink escapes., No credential harvesting, secret exfiltration, remote code loading, or reviewer-directed text was found in inspected source.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to process-ai@0.14.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of process-ai@0.14.0 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.
