## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 20 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:** 0.1.0-rc.152
- **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.

The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected MCP setup path prints instructions instead of mutating agent configuration. Credential lookup and browser login are scoped to the selected API origin, with no confirmed unrelated recipient or attack behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-17T12:47:56.937Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-17T12:48:50.835Z
- **Download time:** 1039 ms
- **Static scan time:** 4718 ms
- **AI review time:** 48141 ms
- **Total time:** 53898 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:** No attack was identified. The agent setup command prints client configuration instructions, and login credentials are associated with the selected API origin.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI or explicitly starts its MCP server.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports ordinary CLI and MCP use, with no confirmed attack effect.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T12:48:50.835Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The MCP server uses the saved token for requests to the configured API; its install subcommand prints setup text for a selected client.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected MCP setup path prints instructions instead of mutating agent configuration. Credential lookup and browser login are scoped to the selected API origin, with no confirmed unrelated recipient or attack behavior.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json points the CLI to dist/index.js and lists build, test, and typecheck scripts without install lifecycle hooks., The indicated agent-integration code describes client configuration locations; the explicit mcp install command prints setup instructions rather than writing configuration files., Saved credentials are selected by API origin; RUNLOT\_TOKEN is used only when explicitly supplied in the environment., Browser login uses the selected API origin for its handoff and login URL., MCP requests use the session token for requests to the configured API URL.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to runlot@0.1.0-rc.152.

- Review the evidence and your use of runlot@0.1.0-rc.152 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.
