## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 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:** 0.5.0
- **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 executable is documented as a local runner for WildCrane jobs, and the inspected credential flows serve WildCrane authentication or selected local agent providers. The flagged shell strings are agent installer metadata; no automatic unrelated collection or execution was established.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T03:50:16.404Z

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; network, process, credential, and file operations inspected are consistent with the local runner’s stated purpose.

- **Trigger:** The user invokes the wildcrane-runner CLI; its runner then connects to WildCrane and performs jobs assigned through that service.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports local agent job execution and runner updates; no unrelated credential transfer or unauthorized account action was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T03:51:11.771Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The launcher starts the bundled runner, which uses the configured WildCrane authentication and API endpoints. Selected provider credentials are made available to the corresponding local agent process.

- **Rationale:** The executable is documented as a local runner for WildCrane jobs, and the inspected credential flows serve WildCrane authentication or selected local agent providers. The flagged shell strings are agent installer metadata; no automatic unrelated collection or execution was established.

- **Files touched:** machine.json, session.json, dist/runner.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** api.ai4kanban.dev, yajrbpprmdvtkvjjfpbk.supabase.co, registry.npmjs.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package describes itself as a local runner that connects to WildCrane and runs jobs through local AI coding tools., The runner sends its saved refresh token to its configured Supabase authentication endpoint and uses the resulting access token for WildCrane API requests., Provider secrets are passed to the selected local agent only when that provider’s setting applies., The launcher runs the package’s runner entry point, matching the stated purpose of the CLI., Automatic runner updates are downloaded as this package from the npm registry and checked against the published SHA-512 integrity value.

- **Evidence against:** The source includes network requests, process execution, and shell install-command strings for supported coding agents; the inspected context ties these to runner updates, local job execution, and agent setup rather than unrelated collection., The package declares a prepare build script, but no install-time data collection or unrelated install hook behavior was identified.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to wildcrane-runner@0.5.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of wildcrane-runner@0.5.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
