## 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:** 1.0.28
- **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 command that can reconfigure external AI clients, so it warrants a capability warning. Static inspection found no automatic lifecycle trigger or confirmed malicious payload.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-28T00:23:31.508Z

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:** An explicit sync command can alter AI-client configuration. No automatic install-time attack surface was identified.

- **Trigger:** The user runs the qpx sync command.

- **Impact:** Later client requests may use the local gateway rather than the previously selected provider.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T00:24:29.174Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The command routes selected client configurations to the local QwenProxy provider and writes its configured API key.

- **Rationale:** The package has an explicit command that can reconfigure external AI clients, so it warrants a capability warning. Static inspection found no automatic lifecycle trigger or confirmed malicious payload.

- **Files touched:** ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.claude/settings.json, ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc, ~/.omp/agent/models.yml

- **Network endpoints:** http://127.0.0.1:7936/v1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The CLI dispatches synchronization only when the user supplies the sync command., The synchronization command invokes client configuration updates., The updater writes a QwenProxy provider and bearer token into the Codex configuration., No npm preinstall, install, or postinstall hook was found in package.json.

- **Evidence against:** The configuration mutation is an explicit user-command feature, not automatic installation behavior., The configured gateway defaults to a local loopback address.

## Affected versions and remediation
