## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 1.2.9
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This release is a local Qwen API gateway whose agent sync and self-update paths are explicit user commands, not install hooks. Default sync targets are loopback, and remote media fetches are guarded against private hosts.

## 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:** No install-time or covert attack surface was identified. Agent configuration writes, registry checks, and browser downloads run only from explicit CLI commands and stay aligned with a local Qwen proxy.

- **Trigger:** User runs qpx, qpx sync, or qpx update.

- **Impact:** No unconsented credential export, remote payload, or install-hook mutation of agent control files was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T00:31:06.267Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI starts the local proxy, optionally writes loopback base URLs into known client config files with backups, or installs a newer release of the same package from the npm registry.

- **Rationale:** This release is a local Qwen API gateway whose agent sync and self-update paths are explicit user commands, not install hooks. Default sync targets are loopback, and remote media fetches are guarded against private hosts.

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json declares bin qpx and user scripts only, with no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Agent config paths such as ~/.claude/settings.json are used only inside syncAllClients, which the CLI reaches when the user runs the sync command., resolveBaseUrls points synced clients at a loopback host and the local proxy port by default., The update command queries registry.npmjs.org for this package name and installs it only after the user runs update., assertSafeRemoteMediaUrl rejects non-http(s) URLs, embedded credentials, and hosts that resolve to private addresses.

- **Evidence against:** syncAllClients can rewrite several third-party coding-agent config files, but only after an explicit sync command and it records backups for restore., bin/qwenproxy.js and bin/update.js spawn a package manager or Playwright install only for user-invoked browser or update flows.

## Affected versions and remediation
