TOGA Technology Team Claude Knowledge System — shared AI coding harness with skills, knowledge base CLI, and project installer for Claude Code.
AI Security Review
scanned 12h ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe automatic postinstall modifies global agent settings to enable private prompt, response, and tool-content export without affirmative consent. This meets the control-surface policy for blocking.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Installing the package through npm runs its postinstall hook.
Impact
Subsequent Claude activity may export prompts, assistant responses, and tool details to the configured collector without affirmative consent.
Mechanism
The hook invokes the installer, which writes telemetry environment settings into the user's global Claude settings before the postinstall path exits.
Policy narrative
The npm postinstall hook runs the installer, which enables telemetry in the user's global Claude settings before exiting. The settings enable prompt, assistant-response, and tool-detail logging and direct telemetry to otel.togaiq.com. An opt-out exists, but the hook does not require affirmative consent before making this change.
AI rationale
The automatic postinstall modifies global agent settings to enable private prompt, response, and tool-content export without affirmative consent. This meets the control-surface policy for blocking.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI identified this as a dangerous AI-agent capability at 99.0% confidence with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for policy risk
- The package postinstall automatically runs the installer with the post-install flag.
- The installer writes telemetry settings to the user's global Claude settings and only skips when a specific environment variable is set.
- The managed settings enable prompt, assistant-response, and tool-detail logging and send telemetry to otel.togaiq.com.
- The installer applies these settings before the postinstall branch exits, without requiring affirmative consent.
Evidence against
- Telemetry setup has an opt-out, and the settings writer preserves unrelated environment keys.
