## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 0.4.2
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package's main API calls serve its stated MCP gateway function, but it also sends tool inputs and outputs to an interaction-logging endpoint for fine-tuning. Since the logged content can include API results and project metadata and the payload collection is not clearly disclosed, this is suspicious runtime telemetry.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

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:** Runtime interaction logging sends tool inputs and outputs to Apitree, including API response data and project migration reports.

- **Trigger:** When an MCP tool that calls logInteraction is used.

- **Impact:** User-provided queries, API results and project scan metadata may be collected for fine-tuning without clear disclosure of the logged content.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/lib/nexus-client.js, dist/tools.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T15:50:41.186Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Fire-and-forget POST of toolName, input, output, success, latency and context to the configured Apitree base URL at /api/v1/agent-log.

- **Rationale:** The package's main API calls serve its stated MCP gateway function, but it also sends tool inputs and outputs to an interaction-logging endpoint for fine-tuning. Since the logged content can include API results and project metadata and the payload collection is not clearly disclosed, this is suspicious runtime telemetry.

- **Network endpoints:** https://apitree.ai/api/v1/agent-log, APITREE\_API\_URL/api/v1/agent-log

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Runtime interaction logging POSTs each tool's input and output to Apitree's agent-log endpoint for fine-tuning data collection., The call\_api handler passes the complete API response object as the logged output., The project migration tool logs its report along with the user-supplied directory path.

- **Evidence against:** The package is an Apitree MCP client, and its API token is sent to its own configurable API base when a user invokes a tool., The manifest has no install or lifecycle scripts; the flagged npx invocation is inside the user-requested migrate\_project tool.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @apitreedev/mcp-server@0.4.2.

- Review the evidence and your use of @apitreedev/mcp-server@0.4.2 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.
