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 confined to explicit setup, update, and removal commands. Setup’s project analysis sends source to the LLM provider the user selects, consistent with the package’s analyzer purpose; no unrelated credential flow or concealed install-time behavior was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-01T11:14:03.280Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-01T11:14:48.243Z - **Download time:** 766 ms - **Static scan time:** 641 ms - **AI review time:** 43555 ms - **Total time:** 44963 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 attack was identified; setup, project analysis, package updates, and removal are expected CLI functions. - **Trigger:** The user runs a Cairn CLI command; setup also adds a prebuild step for later project builds. - **Impact:** Expected project scaffolding and analysis; project source is sent to the user-selected LLM provider for description generation. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T11:14:48.243Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Setup scaffolds the target project, optionally installs Cairn packages, prompts for an LLM provider and key, and uses that provider to describe project pages. Update prompts before installing by default. - **Rationale:** The flagged process execution is confined to explicit setup, update, and removal commands. Setup’s project analysis sends source to the LLM provider the user selects, consistent with the package’s analyzer purpose; no unrelated credential flow or concealed install-time behavior was found. - **Files touched:** .env, package.json, .cairn/, target project files read during analysis ### 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 library entry point, with only build and typecheck scripts and no install lifecycle script., The CLI invokes setup, update, and remove only for their corresponding explicit commands., Setup installs a fixed list of Cairn packages when the user runs the setup wizard., Setup asks the user to choose an LLM provider and enter that provider’s key; the initial build runs only when a key was supplied., The analyzer sends project page source and element data to the selected LLM client to generate descriptions, matching the package’s stated purpose., Setup adds a prebuild command to regenerate the manifest on future builds. - **Evidence against:** No credential collection or unrelated network transmission was identified., Update asks for confirmation before installing unless the user explicitly passes an apply/yes flag., The library entry point exports analysis functions without invoking the CLI. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cairnvibe/indexer@0.4.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @cairnvibe/indexer@0.4.3 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
