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 flagged process execution is explicit CLI functionality, not an npm lifecycle hook or import side effect. The self-name appears only in a fixed user-command install list, and the package has no runtime self-dependency or lifecycle chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-07T11:46:41.376Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-07T11:47:32.877Z - **Download time:** 505 ms - **Static scan time:** 336 ms - **AI review time:** 50659 ms - **Total time:** 51501 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:** No confirmed malicious attack surface was found. The package modifies a project and calls configured LLM providers only through explicit CLI commands. - **Trigger:** A user runs \`cairn setup\` or \`cairn build\`. - **Impact:** The selected project can be scaffolded and its source can be sent to the configured LLM provider; this is aligned with the CLI's requested operation. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-07T11:47:32.877Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked project scaffolding, fixed dependency installation, and LLM-backed source analysis. - **Rationale:** The flagged process execution is explicit CLI functionality, not an npm lifecycle hook or import side effect. The self-name appears only in a fixed user-command install list, and the package has no runtime self-dependency or lifecycle chain. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/setup.js, dist/manifest.js, dist/l3-describe.js, dist/llm.js, dist/cli.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a CLI and contains no npm install lifecycle hook., The runtime install is only in the explicit \`cairn setup\` command and uses a fixed package list., The child-process use in manifest generation only queries the current Git commit with fixed arguments. - **Evidence against:** No install-time or import-time execution was found., No secret harvesting, arbitrary shell input, destructive action, or persistence was found., LLM calls and source transfer occur only during a user-invoked build/setup flow with configured provider credentials. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cairnvibe/indexer@0.2.2. - Review the evidence and your use of @cairnvibe/indexer@0.2.2 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. ## Public findings ### 1.

Critical: Previous Version Dangerous Delta - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Path:** dist/setup.js - **Public source:** [View source]() This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta matchedPackage = @cairnvibe/indexer@0.2.0 matchedIdentity = npm:QGNhaXJudmliZS9pbmRleGVy:0.2.0 similarity = 0.737 summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file ``` ### 10.
