This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-01T19:49:33.209Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-01T19:51:24.274Z - **Download time:** 508 ms - **Static scan time:** 579 ms - **AI review time:** 109977 ms - **Total time:** 111065 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** An explicit toga-ai command modifies the current project’s Claude Code configuration. It installs executable hooks and broad command permissions; the postinstall path only prints instructions and exits. - **Trigger:** A user runs toga-ai or npx toga-ai from a project. - **Impact:** The project AI agent can automatically execute package hook code and receives broad npm, npx, and git command permissions. - **Evidence paths:** scripts/install.js, .claude/settings.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T19:51:24.274Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Copies hooks and merges Claude Code settings and command approvals. - **Rationale:** This is not malicious under the lifecycle policy because installation does not automatically mutate a project. The explicit installer creates a substantial agent control surface and should be warned for review. - **Files touched:** .claude/settings.json, .claude/hooks/toga/, .claude/skills/, CLAUDE.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The explicit CLI installs package hooks into a project and merges their configuration into .claude/settings.json., The installed configuration runs package code for prompts, tool use, session events, and grants broad command approvals., The install lifecycle itself exits before project setup, so it does not automatically alter the project control surface. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or network activity is performed by the lifecycle path., Networked ClickUp and Talos helpers require explicit commands and user-provided credentials. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.

High: External Ai Agent Control Surface Mutation - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Path:** scripts/install.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Runtime or CLI source writes behavior-bearing configuration into a user or project AI-agent control surface. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript Runtime or CLI code links a write operation to an explicit external AI-agent control path: owledge base team knowledge lives in \`.claude/knowledge/\`. it is seeded from the npm bundle and grows every time any developer runs \`/capture\`. - search it: \`node .claude/knowledge.js search --q="payments"\` - validate it: \`node .claude/knowledge.js validate\` - re-index it: \`node .claude/knowledge.js index\` every time you edit a file inside \`.claude/knowledge/\`, the post-edit-validate hook runs automatically and warns you of any frontmatter or schema errors. --- ### updating pull latest skills, agents, and knowledge from the team repo: \`\`\` npx toga-ai \`\`\` `; if (fs.existssync(claudemdpath)) { const existing = fs.readfilesync(claudemdpath, 'utf8'); if (existing.includ ``` ### 9.
