## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.20.1
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The install hook appears limited to replacing this package’s own CLI shim with its matching native executable. The executable is the main runtime, and material behavior remains unresolved in the available artifact analyses, so manual review is warranted.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The postinstall hook can replace the package’s CLI shim with a bundled native executable. The hook is narrowly scoped, but the executable is the main runtime and its behavior remains unresolved.

- **Trigger:** Installing with npm on a non-Windows platform when a matching bundled executable exists.

- **Impact:** The native program runs when the CLI is used; inspection did not establish whether it contains harmful behavior.

- **Evidence paths:** install.js, native/linux-arm64/tm, native/win32-x64/tm.exe, .lpm-inspection-hB48Te/1-812ab90e7fdb.txt, .lpm-inspection-hB48Te/3-d6ea3ade6cec.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T01:24:28.526Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook copies the executable, checks it with --version, and renames it over bin/tm.js.

- **Rationale:** The install hook appears limited to replacing this package’s own CLI shim with its matching native executable. The executable is the main runtime, and material behavior remains unresolved in the available artifact analyses, so manual review is warranted.

- **Files touched:** package.json, install.js, bin/tm.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json runs install.js as a postinstall hook., install.js restricts the replacement to npm on non-Windows platforms and selects a matching bundled executable., The hook checks that the executable runs, then replaces this package’s own bin/tm.js shim., The Linux ARM64 artifact analysis says its behavior remains unresolved., The Windows x64 analysis leaves native call targets uninspected.

### 9. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 88.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/teammesh@0.20.1/package.json>)

package.json runs install.js as a postinstall hook.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"postinstall": "node install.js"
  },
  "files": [
    "bin",
    "native",

- **Confidence:** 88.0%
- **Path:** install.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/teammesh@0.20.1/install.js>)

install.js restricts the replacement to npm on non-Windows platforms and selects a matching bundled executable.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
if (process.platform === "win32") process.exit(0);
if (!(process.env.npm[redacted] ?? "").startsWith("npm/")) process.exit(0);

const binary = path.join(__dirname, "native"

- **Confidence:** 88.0%
- **Path:** install.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/teammesh@0.20.1/install.js>)

The hook checks that the executable runs, then replaces this package’s own bin/tm.js shim.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
try {
  fs.copyFileSync(binary, staged);
  fs.chmodSync(staged, 0o755);
  // Only swap in a binary that actually runs here.
  execFileSync(staged, ["--version"], { stdio: "ignore" });
  fs.renameSync(staged, shim);
} cat
```
