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. Source inspection found a consent-gated install telemetry ping and a locally launched MCP server. No source evidence established credential theft, unauthorized mutation, or another attack surface. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T13:26:08.718Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T13:26:33.644Z - **Download time:** 760 ms - **Static scan time:** 631 ms - **AI review time:** 23534 ms - **Total time:** 24926 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 in the inspected source. The install hook performs a telemetry ping only after a recorded positive consent choice. - **Trigger:** Installing the package runs its postinstall hook; the hook sends only when its consent and environment guards pass. - **Impact:** No concrete attack impact was established; the observed behavior is consent-gated install telemetry. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T13:26:33.644Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook reads the Extenshi configuration and posts package version, runtime platform details, and an anonymous identifier to the telemetry host. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found a consent-gated install telemetry ping and a locally launched MCP server. No source evidence established credential theft, unauthorized mutation, or another attack surface. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes the server through dist/index.js and runs scripts/postinstall.cjs during installation., The postinstall hook exits unless telemetry consent is recorded as true; it also honors opt-out and CI guards., The hook sends install metadata and an anonymous identifier to the configured telemetry host; it does not read or transmit an API session credential., dist/development-guide.js contains developer documentation URLs and service descriptions, with no reviewer-directed instructions in the inspected excerpt., The runtime entrypoint loads configuration and initializes telemetry before registering MCP tools. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @extenshi/mcp@0.13.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @extenshi/mcp@0.13.0 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.
