## 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:** 2026.8.5
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Install-time code mutates package/plugin state and patches a resolved dependency. No credential harvesting, exfiltration, remote payload retrieval, or foreign broad agent-control write was confirmed.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Install-time code mutates package/plugin state and patches a resolved dependency. No credential harvesting, exfiltration, remote payload retrieval, or foreign broad agent-control write was confirmed.

- **Trigger:** npm package installation

- **Impact:** Can alter local sealclaw plugin metadata and a hoisted pi-ai dependency during install.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/preinstall-package-manager-warning.mjs, scripts/postinstall-bundled-plugins.mjs, scripts/postinstall-patch-pi-ai.mjs, dist/plugin-registry-migration-DiBN8ebi.js, dist/control-ui/assets/index-BcIC7mzP.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T06:41:18.300Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** postinstall plugin-index migration and dependency source patch

- **Rationale:** The package performs install-time local mutation, including a patch to another installed dependency, which is meaningful lifecycle risk. Inspection found no concrete malicious chain such as exfiltration, remote code loading, or unconsented broad AI-agent control-surface takeover.

- **Files touched:** scripts/preinstall-package-manager-warning.mjs, scripts/postinstall-bundled-plugins.mjs, scripts/postinstall-patch-pi-ai.mjs, dist/commands/doctor/shared/plugin-registry-migration.js, dist/plugin-registry-migration-DiBN8ebi.js, node\_modules/@mariozechner/pi-ai/dist/providers/openai-completions.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs two install-time scripts., postinstall imports and runs a plugin-registry migration., Migration reads configuration and writes an installed-plugin index., postinstall patches an installed @mariozechner/pi-ai file.

- **Evidence against:** Preinstall only detects package manager and prints a warning., Reviewed lifecycle scripts contain no network requests or credential collection., Registry migration is package-owned plugin-state maintenance with opt-out., The flagged UI Unicode is bundled parser character-class data, not concealed source logic.
