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. There are no npm lifecycle scripts, and the executable performs setup only when a user explicitly runs its install command. The setup includes persistent helper and hook configuration, but the reviewed source ties those changes to the selected Slaunt integration and its own HTTPS service. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T00:16:44.473Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T00:17:29.086Z - **Download time:** 515 ms - **Static scan time:** 457 ms - **AI review time:** 43640 ms - **Total time:** 44613 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 package provides an explicit Slaunt setup flow for selected AI clients. - **Trigger:** A user runs \`slaunt-hooks install\` and selects Codex, Claude Code, or both; setup then requires Slaunt sign-in and helper enrollment. - **Impact:** The selected clients connect to Slaunt and the helper runs in the background for its authorization features; reviewed source does not show unrelated collection or actions. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T00:17:29.086Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The setup configures the selected client, enrolls a packaged helper, and may register per-user LaunchAgents and client hooks for Slaunt authorization. - **Rationale:** There are no npm lifecycle scripts, and the executable performs setup only when a user explicitly runs its install command. The setup includes persistent helper and hook configuration, but the reviewed source ties those changes to the selected Slaunt integration and its own HTTPS service. - **Files touched:** .claude.json, .codex/config.toml, .claude/settings.json, .codex/hooks.json, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.slaunt.claude-broker.plist, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.slaunt.killbar.plist, ~/Library/Application Support/Slaunt/KillBar/SlauntKillBar.app - **Network endpoints:** central-mcp-ccr-production.up.railway.app ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The executable accepts setup only through an explicit \`install\` command and offers client selection., Setup uses the Slaunt HTTPS issuer and installs its MCP endpoint in the selected client configuration., Persistent helper registration and agent hook setup occur in the explicit setup flow after sign-in and KillBar enrollment., The packaged helper is checked against a manifest hash and code-directory hash before use. - **Evidence against:** Setup can register per-user LaunchAgents that run at login and remain active., Setup writes hooks into Codex and Claude configuration files and connects them to the Slaunt broker., The native helper archive is opaque to this source review; the package describes it as an ad hoc-signed development helper. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to slaunt@0.1.20. - Review the evidence and your use of slaunt@0.1.20 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
