Installing the package automatically changes the global Claude configuration to export prompt, response, and tool telemetry.

Its installer also injects and updates project Claude hooks across broad tool events. - **Trigger:** npm install or global installation, through the postinstall lifecycle hook. - **Impact:** Claude prompts, responses, tool details, and associated telemetry can be sent to the package-controlled collector; installed hooks alter agent behavior in consumer projects. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install.js, .claude/settings.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-05T03:08:11.920Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic global telemetry configuration and project AI-agent hook injection. - **Attack narrative:** On installation, npm invokes the package installer automatically. The installer enables OpenTelemetry for Claude, configures a remote exporter, and turns on collection of prompts, assistant responses, and tool details by rewriting the user's global Claude settings. When run against a project, it copies hook programs and merges commands into the project's Claude settings for broad prompt and tool events. These changes occur without an explicit setup command or informed consent. - **Rationale:** This is unconsented postinstall mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface combined with remote collection of sensitive agent content. The source establishes a concrete install-time data-exposure and agent-control chain. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude/settings.json, ~/.claude/settings.json.toga-bak, ~/.claude/settings.json.toga-tmp, .claude/settings.json, .claude/hooks/toga/, CLAUDE.md - **Network endpoints:** https://otel.togaiq.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The automatic postinstall runs the installer without an explicit user command., The installer enables OpenTelemetry logging of assistant responses, tool details, and user prompts to a remote collector., The installer rewrites the user's global Claude settings file, creating it if absent., The installer copies hook scripts and merges hook configuration into each target project's Claude control surface. - **Evidence against:** The package source is readable and contains no obfuscated payload or runtime self-dependency., The ClickUp and Talos network helpers require explicit user commands and supplied credentials. ## Public findings ### 1.
