@caishenai/cli@0.0.146
Configure Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build and other coding tools for 财神 AI with one command
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source shows default-on runtime telemetry carrying command diagnostics to the package’s gateway, with an opt-out but no disclosure found in the README. This is a privacy risk, but the inspected payload does not establish credential exfiltration or another attack.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Running the CLI and generating tracked command activity; telemetry flushes shortly after events are queued.
Impact
The package’s service receives command and step names, statuses, timing, and masked error messages, which users may not expect because the inspected README does not disclose telemetry.
Mechanism
The CLI posts diagnostic event data and basic runtime identifiers to the configured gateway telemetry route. TELEMETRY=0, false, or off disables collection.
AI rationale
The source shows default-on runtime telemetry carrying command diagnostics to the package’s gateway, with an opt-out but no disclosure found in the README. This is a privacy risk, but the inspected payload does not establish credential exfiltration or another attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Telemetry is enabled by default; it can be disabled with the TELEMETRY environment setting set to 0, false, or off.
- Telemetry sends install ID, version, brand, OS and runtime details, plus command, step, status, duration, and masked error details.
- Queued telemetry is posted to /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry through the package’s configured gateway sender.
- The manifest describes a CLI for configuring coding tools; persistent environment writes are implemented in a configuration helper.
Evidence against
- The telemetry opt-out is explicit and available through an environment setting.
- The inspected telemetry payload contains diagnostic fields rather than credential values or file contents.
- The CLI entry point and manifest show no install lifecycle scripts.
