## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 10 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 1.11.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 lifecycle hook is an explicit IBM telemetry invocation configured for IBM’s endpoint; its configuration restricts collected fields. The environment-variable references found in the package are test-environment checks, so the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%

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 malicious attack was identified. The install hook starts configured IBM telemetry collection, and the reviewed configuration scopes the endpoint and collection fields.

- **Trigger:** Package installation runs the postinstall script.

- **Impact:** The source inspected supports package-aligned telemetry collection, with no evidence of credential theft or an unrelated recipient.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T03:39:17.999Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The script invokes the IBM telemetry CLI using telemetry.yml, which names IBM’s telemetry endpoint and limits collected fields.

- **Rationale:** The flagged lifecycle hook is an explicit IBM telemetry invocation configured for IBM’s endpoint; its configuration restricts collected fields. The environment-variable references found in the package are test-environment checks, so the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior.

- **Network endpoints:** https://www-api.ibm.com/ibm-telemetry/v1/metrics

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook runs the IBM telemetry CLI with the package’s telemetry configuration., The telemetry config sends to IBM’s telemetry endpoint and restricts web-component attribute collection to named attributes; npm dependency and JavaScript function/token collection are disabled., The environment-variable references in the bridge module control test detection and bridge behavior, not credential access or transmission.

### 6. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 7. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@carbon/ai-chat-components@1.11.0/package.json>)

The postinstall hook runs the IBM telemetry CLI with the package’s telemetry configuration.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"postinstall": "ibmtelemetry --config=telemetry.yml",
    "start": "concurrently --names storybook,s
```

### 8. Low: Suspicious Dependency Evidence
- **Category:** Dependency
- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** telemetry.yml
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@carbon/ai-chat-components@1.11.0/telemetry.yml>)

The telemetry config sends to IBM’s telemetry endpoint and restricts web-component attribute collection to named attributes; npm dependency and JavaScript function/token collection are disabled.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```yaml
version: 1
projectId: 62aa153d-8a70-4d12-9e8d-069511e80e65
endpoint: https://www-api.ibm.com/ibm-telemetry/v1/metrics
collect:
  wc:
    elements:
      allowedAttributeN
```

### 9. Low: Suspicious Dependency Evidence
- **Category:** Dependency
- **Confidence:** 91.0%
- **Path:** telemetry.yml
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@carbon/ai-chat-components@1.11.0/telemetry.yml>)

The telemetry config sends to IBM’s telemetry endpoint and restricts web-component attribute collection to named attributes; npm dependency and JavaScript function/token collection are disabled.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```yaml
npm:
    dependencies: null
  js:
    functions: {}
    tokens: null
```

- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@carbon/ai-chat-components@1.11.0/es/react/utils/withWebComponentBridge.js>)

The environment-variable references in the bridge module control test detection and bridge behavior, not credential access or transmission.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
function isInTestEnvironment() {
    // Explicit override to disable
    if (typeof process !== 'undefined' &&
        process.env?.AICHAT_DISABLE_WEB_COMPONENT_BRIDGE === 'true') {
