## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified; the package provides an Apso CLI with disclosed, configurable runtime telemetry.

- **Trigger:** CLI invocation; telemetry hooks run before and after commands.

- **Impact:** The source describes usage analytics and error reporting, with an opt-out; no malicious collection or account action was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:54:41.441Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Telemetry sends command and runtime details and Apso account, workspace, and service identifiers to PostHog and Sentry. The verifier’s network requests target the project service or configured database.

- **Rationale:** The flagged process execution and network calls support project verification and CLI operation. Runtime telemetry is disclosed with opt-out controls, and the inspected source does not show credential exfiltration or other malicious behavior.

- **Network endpoints:** us.i.posthog.com, o4509208616435714.ingest.us.sentry.io, http://127.0.0.1 (local smoke-test server)

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its init and postrun hooks are CLI telemetry hooks., Telemetry can be disabled with the documented config setting or environment variables., Telemetry sends CLI and runtime details plus Apso account, workspace, and service identifiers to the package’s PostHog and Sentry endpoints., The verifier’s smoke tests are invoked by CLI operations and exercise the project service and configured database.

- **Evidence against:** The package metadata identifies it as the Apso CLI and points to its project repository., The main entry point exports the oclif runner without other top-level behavior., The telemetry notice says no email, code, schema, or file contents are collected.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @apso/cli@0.43.3.

- Review the evidence and your use of @apso/cli@0.43.3 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.

- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/commands/dev.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@apso/cli@0.43.3/dist/commands/dev.js>)

```javascript
matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta
matchedPackage = @apso/cli@0.28.0
matchedIdentity = npm:QGFwc28vY2xp:0.28.0
similarity = 0.700
