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 explicit setup path enables ongoing transfer of commit metadata through a first-party Cachly integration. Because the npm lifecycle hook does not install it and no broader control-surface change or credential theft was established, this is a warning-level capability. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-12T22:57:50.036Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-12T23:01:16.572Z - **Download time:** 1031 ms - **Static scan time:** 1679 ms - **AI review time:** 203824 ms - **Total time:** 206536 ms 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:** Explicit setup can add a project-local Git post-commit hook that submits commit metadata to the Cachly learning service. This is a conditional first-party integration, not an install-time action. - **Trigger:** The user runs the package's setup command in a project containing a Git repository. - **Impact:** Those commit details are sent to the configured Cachly service after commits, without a separate confirmation for each commit. - **Evidence paths:** dist/src/index.js, dist/src/cls-hook.js, dist/src/handlers/fedbrain.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-12T23:01:16.572Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Setup installs or updates a post-commit hook that invokes the Cachly CLI with the commit message, identifier, and changed file names. - **Rationale:** The explicit setup path enables ongoing transfer of commit metadata through a first-party Cachly integration. Because the npm lifecycle hook does not install it and no broader control-surface change or credential theft was established, this is a warning-level capability. - **Files touched:** .git/hooks/post-commit, dist/src/cls-hook.js, dist/src/index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://api.cachly.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package postinstall prints a command for the user to run to configure the service; it does not install the Git hook itself., The explicit setup commands install or update a project-local post-commit hook., The hook invokes the Cachly CLI with commit messages, commit identifiers, and changed file names; the Cachly handler accepts these as Git learning signals, using the Cachly API by default., Other inspected integration locations concern Cachly-owned editor settings, credentials, plugin-version lookup, and ambient-hook files. - **Evidence against:** The npm postinstall only displays setup guidance; it does not activate the hook., The post-commit payload contains commit metadata, not the committed file contents. The setup is a first-party project integration, and no unrelated agent-control write or credential theft was established. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cachly-dev/mcp-server@0.10.187. - Review the evidence and your use of @cachly-dev/mcp-server@0.10.187 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
