## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation invokes IBM telemetry with the included configuration. No malicious attack surface is established by the package source.

- **Trigger:** npm installation

- **Impact:** The configuration names an IBM metrics endpoint, but inspected source shows no secret collection, project mutation, or payload execution.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-09T09:54:23.741Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Package-aligned telemetry configuration

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle hook is a transparent telemetry invocation whose local configuration disables the sensitive collection categories shown. The remaining shipped content is stylesheet source and generated CSS, with no concrete malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** 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:** Installation automatically runs the IBM telemetry command.

- **Evidence against:** The package is a stylesheet distribution containing CSS and SCSS assets, with no shipped production JavaScript entrypoint., The telemetry configuration disables dependency and token collection and declares no JavaScript functions., There is no self-dependency, shell payload, credential harvesting, destructive action, or agent-control-surface mutation in the inspected source.
