## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation executes hooks that modify a third-party dependency and migrate a package-owned plugin index. No exfiltration or remote payload delivery was confirmed.

- **Trigger:** npm install executing preinstall and postinstall

- **Impact:** Unexpected local mutation of pi-ai and the package’s plugin state.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-patch-pi-ai.mjs, scripts/postinstall-bundled-plugins.mjs, dist/plugin-registry-migration-BBZFE9Es.js, dist/installed-plugin-index-store-DMUsqx5A.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-14T14:32:01.919Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** install-time dependency patch and plugin-index migration

- **Rationale:** Source confirms nontrivial install-time mutation outside the package directory, but not a concrete malicious chain or foreign/broad AI-agent control-surface hijack. Downgrade to warn for install-hook risk.

- **Files touched:** scripts/preinstall-package-manager-warning.mjs, scripts/postinstall-bundled-plugins.mjs, scripts/postinstall-patch-pi-ai.mjs, node\_modules/@mariozechner/pi-ai/dist/providers/openai-completions.js, plugins/installs.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for:** npm postinstall rewrites a resolved @mariozechner/pi-ai file., Postinstall migrates and writes the package’s plugin install index.

- **Evidence against:** Preinstall only emits a package-manager warning., The pi-ai edit is a fixed, anchor-checked cost passthrough., Reviewed lifecycle scripts contain no network call or credential collection.
