## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. The postinstall hook invokes telemetry configured for an IBM metrics endpoint, while the inspected runtime entrypoint exports layout values and helpers.

- **Trigger:** Package installation triggers the postinstall telemetry command.

- **Impact:** The inspected source does not establish an attack surface or collection of credentials or consumer files.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T01:32:31.252Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook passes telemetry.yml to ibmtelemetry; the configuration identifies an IBM endpoint and does not list dependency, token, or function data for collection.

- **Rationale:** The flagged lifecycle hook invokes package-aligned IBM telemetry, and its configuration does not specify dependency, token, or JavaScript function collection. The runtime entrypoint exposes layout values and helpers; no concrete malicious behavior was established.

- **Files touched:** package.json, telemetry.yml

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook runs IBM telemetry using the package's telemetry configuration., The configuration sends metrics to an IBM endpoint and sets dependency and token collection to null, with no JavaScript functions listed for collection., The ES entrypoint exports layout sizing values and helpers.

- **Evidence against:** The package has an automatic postinstall hook that invokes a telemetry command.
