## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 21 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse
- **Selected version:** 2026.9.15
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The source confirms an install-time mutation of installed pi-ai code, so a warning is warranted. The behavior inspected is narrowly scoped to cost handling and does not meet the blocking threshold for broad AI-agent control-surface mutation.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-08T15:55:47.120Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-08T15:57:24.468Z
- **Download time:** 1013 ms
- **Static scan time:** 4182 ms
- **AI review time:** 92152 ms
- **Total time:** 97348 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:** The npm postinstall hook may modify an installed third-party pi-ai source file to change cost handling. The inspected patch is conditional and narrowly anchored; no broader agent control-surface mutation was established.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package through npm with its postinstall hook enabled.

- **Impact:** An installed dependency is modified during package installation, changing how reported model usage cost is handled.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-patch-pi-ai.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T15:57:24.468Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook locates pi-ai files, checks for a marker and expected source anchor, then replaces the anchor and writes the patched file.

- **Rationale:** The source confirms an install-time mutation of installed pi-ai code, so a warning is warranted. The behavior inspected is narrowly scoped to cost handling and does not meet the blocking threshold for broad AI-agent control-surface mutation.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall-patch-pi-ai.mjs, installed node\_modules/@mariozechner/pi-ai/dist/providers/openai-completions.js, installed node\_modules/@mariozechner/pi-ai/dist/providers/openai-responses-shared.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package postinstall runs a script that searches for an installed pi-ai dependency and writes a patch into that dependency’s source file., The patch is narrowly targeted at pi-ai cost handling; the inspected script does not show a broad agent configuration change., The vault initializer writes an AGENTS.md file when the wiki-init command is invoked., The inspected audit helper only enumerates installed plugin directories.

- **Evidence against:** The package-manager preinstall hook only emits a warning based on detected package manager., The inspected postinstall patch proceeds only when its target and expected source anchor are found.
