Installation mutates user-global Claude Code and Codex skill directories with a package-supplied, auto-invokable instruction file. Runtime can control a locally launched browser and automatically install a newer package release. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-12T00:31:58.591Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-12T00:33:12.815Z - **Download time:** 260 ms - **Static scan time:** 70 ms - **AI review time:** 73893 ms - **Total time:** 74224 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation mutates user-global Claude Code and Codex skill directories with a package-supplied, auto-invokable instruction file. Runtime can control a locally launched browser and automatically install a newer package release. - **Trigger:** \`npm install\` runs postinstall; invoking the CLI or installed skill activates runtime behavior. - **Impact:** Changes agent behavior and gives the installed skill browser-control capability; no concrete data-exfiltration chain is present. - **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:** 2026-07-12T00:33:12.815Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Global agent-skill installation plus CDP browser automation and runtime self-update. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms first-party global AI-agent extension setup and powerful browser automation, but no credential theft, destructive behavior, remote payload execution, or exfiltration. Policy classifies this as warn rather than block. - **Files touched:** scripts/install-skill.js, .claude/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md, ~/.agents/skills/ttj-skills-browser/SKILL.md, ~/.ttj-skills-browser-installed, dist/browser.js, dist/cdp.js - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/ttj-skills-browser/latest, http://127.0.0.1:\ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** \`package.json\` runs \`postinstall\`., \`scripts/install-skill.js\` writes global \`.claude\` and \`.agents\` skills., Bundled \`SKILL.md\` directs agents to use this browser tool exclusively., \`dist/browser.js\` silently auto-updates via global npm install at CLI runtime., \`dist/cdp.js\` supports arbitrary active-page JS and browser input. - **Evidence against:** Postinstall copies only the package-named skill and creates a marker file., No credential harvesting, secret reads, or non-package endpoint exfiltration found., Network use is limited to npm version lookup and localhost CDP. ## Public findings ### 1.
