rainskills@0.1.14
Interactive Rainbond skill installer for Codex, Claude Code, and Pi Agent
AI Security Review
scanned 19d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged configuration and SSH operations are tied to user-invoked setup with narrow, package-aligned effects. The scanner’s persistence label is explained by the SSH helper’s interactive installation of a public key on the user-selected host.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
The package runs when a user invokes its CLI or installer; SSH key preparation additionally requires an interactive terminal.
Impact
The inspected behavior supports local CLI setup and user-requested server preparation; it does not establish unauthorized access, credential disclosure, or unconsented agent control changes.
Mechanism
The helper removes a matching legacy RainSkills MCP entry, while SSH preparation sends a public key to the host supplied by the user. Windows setup requires confirmation before advancing beyond preflight.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged configuration and SSH operations are tied to user-invoked setup with narrow, package-aligned effects. The scanner’s persistence label is explained by the SSH helper’s interactive installation of a public key on the user-selected host.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 93.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exposes the CLI and lists packaging, version, and test scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- The local CLI helper removes only a matching legacy RainSkills MCP entry from Codex configuration, and setup invokes it as part of an explicit install flow.
- SSH preparation requires an interactive terminal and sends a public key over SSH to the supplied host, with the normal opportunity to confirm the host and enter a server password.
- Windows installation advances from preflight only after confirmation, and its artifact helper checks downloaded files against expected size and SHA-256.
