## Verdict summary
**Soft block: AI-agent control surface** — Warn by default; block when configured. Package instructions become globally available to installed agent clients and can direct unattended task execution.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** npm installation mutates Claude and Codex global agent control surfaces. Existing same-named user paths are forcibly removed and replaced with package-controlled symlinks.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Package instructions become globally available to installed agent clients and can direct unattended task execution.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, SKILLS/ubus/SKILL.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-28T07:48:59.367Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** forced global AI-agent skill and command replacement

- **Attack narrative:** On npm postinstall, the package enumerates its SKILLS, recursively removes existing matching Claude/Codex global skill or command paths, and replaces them with symlinks into the package. This occurs without a user command or opt-in. One installed skill documents unattended auto-injection and execution of bus-delivered tasks, making the foreign agent-control-surface mutation materially dangerous.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete, unconsented postinstall mutation of broad foreign AI-agent control surfaces, including destructive replacement of existing paths. It meets the blocking policy regardless of the absence of install-time network activity.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, SKILLS/ubus/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/commands/\<skill\>.md, ~/.claude/skills/\<skill\>, ${CODEX\_HOME:-~/.codex}/skills/\<skill\>

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** scripts/postinstall.js runs automatically via package.json postinstall., postinstall deletes existing matching paths, then symlinks package SKILLS into ~/.claude/commands and ~/.claude/skills., postinstall also symlinks package skills into ${CODEX\_HOME:-~/.codex}/skills without consent., SKILLS/ubus/SKILL.md directs unattended auto-injection/execution of received bus tasks.

- **Evidence against:** The install hook makes no network request or credential read., Network relay code uses explicit runtime commands and TLS by default.
