## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 26 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:** 0.1.23
- **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 flagged persistence, client configuration, OAuth, and updater code is reached through the CLI’s explicit setup flow and serves Slaunt’s stated integration purpose. The package has no lifecycle install hooks, and the inspected credential flow uses Slaunt’s configured issuer; no malicious behavior was established.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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; package behavior is consistent with an explicitly invoked Slaunt client setup and updater.

- **Trigger:** The user runs the CLI install command and selects Codex, Claude Code, or both; there are no npm lifecycle install scripts.

- **Impact:** These actions modify selected client settings and install Slaunt background components as part of setup. No unrelated credential collection or attack behavior was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T20:08:53.424Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The setup configures selected clients, performs Slaunt OAuth, enrolls its helper, installs related hooks and launch agents, and registers an updater that requests approval before applying releases.

- **Rationale:** The flagged persistence, client configuration, OAuth, and updater code is reached through the CLI’s explicit setup flow and serves Slaunt’s stated integration purpose. The package has no lifecycle install hooks, and the inspected credential flow uses Slaunt’s configured issuer; no malicious behavior was established.

- **Files touched:** .claude.json, .claude/settings.json, .codex/config.toml, .codex/hooks.json, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.slaunt.killbar.cli.plist, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.slaunt.claude-broker.plist, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.slaunt.updater.plist

- **Network endpoints:** central-mcp-ccr-production.up.railway.app, registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes an install command and has no npm lifecycle install scripts, so its setup flow does not run automatically during package installation., The CLI accepts an explicit install command and asks the user to select clients before setup proceeds., Setup sends OAuth credentials to the configured Slaunt issuer and installs Slaunt’s client configuration for the selected clients., The updater stages releases from the npm registry with scripts disabled and waits for approval before applying an update.

- **Evidence against:** Setup intentionally registers Slaunt helper and broker launch agents and installs hooks; these are product functions reached through the explicit setup flow., The source includes credential and network handling for Slaunt sign-in, but I found no evidence that credentials are sent to an unrelated host.

## Affected versions and remediation
