Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## 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:** 2.0.2 - **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. LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Automatic installation and refresh of package-owned agent skills creates a concrete extension lifecycle risk. No confirmed malicious attack was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-06T21:58:14.530Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-06T21:58:59.024Z - **Download time:** 755 ms - **Static scan time:** 165 ms - **AI review time:** 43572 ms - **Total time:** 44494 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:** Automatic installation and refresh of package-owned agent skills creates a concrete extension lifecycle risk. No confirmed malicious attack was established. - **Trigger:** Global npm installation or any CLI invocation when skills are missing or outdated, unless disabled by environment settings. - **Impact:** Agents can discover new or revised Rplay instructions automatically after installation or a CLI update; writes remain limited to Rplay-specific extensions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, src/skill.js, src/cli.js, src/commands/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-06T21:58:59.024Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package copies its skill and manual into three agent platforms' Rplay skill directories and replaces outdated copies without requesting consent. - **Rationale:** Source confirms automatic first-party agent extension setup and refresh, which warrants a lifecycle warning under the supplied policy. Its scoped destinations and absence of a demonstrated malicious chain do not support publication blocking. - **Files touched:** .claude/skills/rplay/SKILL.md, .claude/skills/rplay/AI.md, .codex/skills/rplay/SKILL.md, .codex/skills/rplay/AI.md, .agents/skills/rplay/SKILL.md, .agents/skills/rplay/AI.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json activates scripts/postinstall.js, which automatically installs skills on global installs unless CI or RPLAY\_NO\_SKILL disables it., src/skill.js writes SKILL.md and AI.md into Rplay-specific skill directories for Claude, Codex, and shared agents., src/cli.js automatically restores missing or outdated skills before command dispatch, including help, without a consent prompt., src/commands/index.js implements an explicit update command that installs the latest CLI release and refreshes its skills. - **Evidence against:** The agent writes are confined to the package-owned rplay skill directories; no broader agent configuration mutation was identified., Local npm installs skip skill setup, and environment switches disable automatic installation., Inspected authentication uses caller-supplied Rplay credentials; no covert credential harvesting or unrelated recipient was identified. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to rplay-cli@2.0.2. - Review the evidence and your use of rplay-cli@2.0.2 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
