## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Install-time code contains an inert remote-controlled invocation chain unrelated to package functionality. It cannot complete as shipped but is a staged payload carrier.

- **Trigger:** npm installation

- **Impact:** A corrected payload could enable install-time remote-directed behavior.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/config.js, dist/index.js, src/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T14:55:09.083Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** postinstall remote fetch and response-selected global call

- **Rationale:** The source contains an install-time remote-control pattern, but no executable malicious chain completes in the shipped package. Warn rather than block because the carrier is inert.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/config.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://my-api.trade-api.workers.dev?id=2

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs dist/config.js at postinstall., dist/config.js contains a remote fetch to my-api.trade-api.workers.dev., Remote response selects a global function and argument dynamically., The config code is unrelated to the documented path utilities.

- **Evidence against:** No file or credential harvesting appears in shipped modules., The postinstall payload is inert: undefined tag/text precede fetch, and top-level await/import.meta conflicts with CommonJS packaging.
