## 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:** 0.21.1
- **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 install lifecycle is transparent and only logs a message. Static inspection found no self-dependency chain, automatic control-surface mutation, credential collection, or payload execution.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

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 confirmed malicious attack surface was established. Installation only emits a status message, and sensitive operations are user-invoked CLI features.

- **Trigger:** No automatic harmful trigger identified.

- **Impact:** No confirmed unconsented mutation, exfiltration, or remote payload execution.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T08:37:34.317Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** No confirmed malicious mechanism.

- **Rationale:** The install lifecycle is transparent and only logs a message. Static inspection found no self-dependency chain, automatic control-surface mutation, credential collection, or payload execution.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest invokes a postinstall script., The postinstall source only prints an installation message; it does not perform file, network, or process actions., The high-priority analysis chunk was inspected and contains source-analysis helper logic, not an install payload.

- **Evidence against:** No self-dependency on scip-query was found., The registry request is a runtime update check with a one-second timeout and can be disabled by environment variables., Child-process calls support explicit CLI indexer discovery and installation, not automatic postinstall execution., Agent and project mutations are exposed as explicit CLI commands, not lifecycle actions.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to scip-query@0.21.1.

- Review the evidence and your use of scip-query@0.21.1 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.
