## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 21 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:** 0.6.18
- **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 install hook only builds the package, and the CLI launches a local runner intended to connect to WildCrane. The reviewed credential handling is tied to sign-in or configured agent providers, with no evidence of unrelated collection or a fixed malicious redirect.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-04T02:11:25.779Z

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 local runner and settings functions.

- **Trigger:** The prepare hook builds the package; runtime behavior starts when the user invokes the CLI.

- **Impact:** No unrelated credential collection, unauthorized account actions, or harmful execution was identified in the reviewed paths.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T02:12:08.745Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The launcher connects to WildCrane’s cloud service, supports browser sign-in, and passes configured provider credentials to the selected agent endpoint.

- **Rationale:** The install hook only builds the package, and the CLI launches a local runner intended to connect to WildCrane. The reviewed credential handling is tied to sign-in or configured agent providers, with no evidence of unrelated collection or a fixed malicious redirect.

- **Files touched:** ~/.wildcrane/machine.json, ~/.wildcrane session and settings files

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The prepare hook only runs the package build script., The CLI entry point imports the launcher, which starts the runner or opens settings when explicitly requested., The launcher uses WildCrane’s configured cloud and Supabase endpoints for runner and sign-in functions., Provider keys are configured for the selected agent endpoint and passed under that provider’s expected environment variable.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to wildcrane-runner@0.6.18.

- Review the evidence and your use of wildcrane-runner@0.6.18 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
