## 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:** 0.2.32
- **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.

This is an unconsented install-lifecycle modification of a consumer project paired with an AI traffic interception and reporting capability. The immediate process exit makes completion of the alias rewrite uncertain, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a definitive block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-11T09:00:10.440Z
- **Finished:** 2026-09-11T09:01:34.274Z
- **Download time:** 501 ms
- **Static scan time:** 1507 ms
- **AI review time:** 81825 ms
- **Total time:** 83834 ms

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:** Installation automatically edits detected Next.js project configuration. The package also provides an AI-SDK alias and runtime interceptor that collects LLM conversation and tool data for remote reporting.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package in a Next.js project; importing the automatic interceptor or activating the AI bridge at runtime.

- **Impact:** Consumer AI application traffic, including prompts, answers, and tool data, can be sent to the Relia service without an explicit runtime opt-in.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/postinstall.cjs, dist/next-setup.cjs, dist/auto.cjs, dist/agent/ai-bridge.cjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T09:01:34.274Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Postinstall project-config mutation and LLM telemetry interception.

- **Rationale:** This is an unconsented install-lifecycle modification of a consumer project paired with an AI traffic interception and reporting capability. The immediate process exit makes completion of the alias rewrite uncertain, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a definitive block.

- **Files touched:** next.config.ts, next.config.mjs, next.config.js, next.config.cjs, globalThis.fetch

- **Network endpoints:** https://devreliaapi.tryrelia.com/api/v1/agents/runs

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 87.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The package runs a postinstall hook automatically., The hook detects Next.js projects and contains code to rewrite their configuration to alias the AI SDK., Its runtime interceptor captures LLM prompts, answers, and tool-call data, then posts them to a Relia endpoint.

- **Evidence against:** The postinstall mutation is limited to detected Next.js projects., No source evidence shows credential harvesting, destructive commands, or a self-dependency chain., The alias rewrite is asynchronous immediately before process exit, so this specific path may not complete.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to relia-sdk@0.2.32.

- Review the evidence and your use of relia-sdk@0.2.32 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.
