## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.4.1
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The reported agent configuration writes and scheduled task setup support this usage collector’s documented CLI function and are reached through init. The reviewed Claude credential path sends its token to Anthropic’s usage endpoint; no malicious behavior was established.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified; the reviewed behavior supports the package’s token-usage collection purpose.

- **Trigger:** Users run the CLI; integration setup and scheduled sync are configured through init.

- **Impact:** No malicious behavior was established in the reviewed credential, persistence, or agent-configuration paths.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T11:11:35.893Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI reads provider usage data and can configure agent integrations and periodic sync during init.

- **Rationale:** The reported agent configuration writes and scheduled task setup support this usage collector’s documented CLI function and are reached through init. The reviewed Claude credential path sends its token to Anthropic’s usage endpoint; no malicious behavior was established.

- **Files touched:** src/commands/init.js, src/lib/openclaw-hook.js, src/lib/scheduled-task.js

- **Network endpoints:** api.anthropic.com, api.github.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package is a CLI for collecting AI coding token usage; its entry points are src/cli.js and bin/tokenusage.js., Claude usage requests send the Claude OAuth token to Anthropic’s usage endpoint., OpenClaw integration setup and hourly sync scheduling are part of the explicit init command., The only declared lifecycle hook is prepublishOnly, which runs tests.

- **Evidence against:** The flagged agent configuration writes and scheduled persistence are tied to init, rather than running automatically on install or import., The reviewed Claude credential flow targets api.anthropic.com, its own provider endpoint.

## Affected versions and remediation
