Postinstall mutates global Claude Code and Codex skill directories without a separate setup command. The installed skill grants a persistent-profile browser automation capability with arbitrary page evaluation; no source-confirmed data exfiltration was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-12T00:42:09.362Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-12T00:43:02.253Z - **Download time:** 251 ms - **Static scan time:** 66 ms - **AI review time:** 52573 ms - **Total time:** 52891 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Postinstall mutates global Claude Code and Codex skill directories without a separate setup command. The installed skill grants a persistent-profile browser automation capability with arbitrary page evaluation; no source-confirmed data exfiltration was found. - **Trigger:** \`npm install\` triggers postinstall; invoking the CLI triggers browser launch, CDP actions, and daily update checks. - **Impact:** An installed agent can be instructed to access the active browser profile and execute page JavaScript; future package code is fetched by the self-update path. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-skill.js, .claude/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md, dist/browser.js, dist/cdp.js, dist/utils.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-12T00:43:02.253Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Global AI-agent skill installation plus local CDP browser automation and runtime self-update. - **Rationale:** This is a first-party, package-named agent-extension setup with powerful browser-control instructions and automatic updates, not a source-confirmed exfiltration or destructive malware chain. It warrants a warning under the extension lifecycle policy rather than a publish block. - **Files touched:** scripts/install-skill.js, ~/.claude/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md, ~/.agents/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md, ~/.ttj-skills-browser/.last-update-check, /tmp/ttj-screenshot.png, /tmp/ttj-refs-visual.png - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/ttj-skills-browser/latest, https://www.google.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** \`package.json\` runs \`postinstall\` automatically., \`scripts/install-skill.js\` writes global \`~/.claude/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md\` and \`~/.agents/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md\`., Installed skill directs agents to route all browser work through this package and its persistent browser profile., \`dist/cdp.js\` exposes arbitrary active-page JavaScript evaluation over CDP., \`dist/browser.js\` checks npm and runs \`npm install -g ttj-skills-browser@latest\` during CLI startup. - **Evidence against:** No credential, cookie, environment, or filesystem harvesting code found., No exfiltration endpoint or outbound payload upload found., CDP is bound to \`127.0.0.1\` and targets the package-created browser profile., Chrome launch, navigation, screenshots, and page actions are user-command-driven., Lifecycle script copies only package-named skill files; it does not overwrite unrelated agent configuration. ## Public findings ### 1.
