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 postinstall network activity is limited to telemetry and is gated on recorded affirmative consent. The required source paths and relevant runtime telemetry configuration were inspected; no attack behavior was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-18T23:50:36.869Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-18T23:51:04.683Z - **Download time:** 1275 ms - **Static scan time:** 649 ms - **AI review time:** 25888 ms - **Total time:** 27814 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. The install hook sends limited telemetry only when prior affirmative consent is recorded. - **Trigger:** Installing the package as a dependency on a machine with telemetry consent recorded. - **Impact:** No confirmed attack surface; the observed telemetry is consent-gated and package-aligned. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T23:51:04.683Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook sends an install event with an anonymous install ID and coarse package and system metadata to the configured telemetry service. - **Rationale:** The postinstall network activity is limited to telemetry and is gated on recorded affirmative consent. The required source paths and relevant runtime telemetry configuration were inspected; no attack behavior was found. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook runs on dependency installs, but sends only when the shared config records telemetry as true; its event contains an install ID and coarse package and system metadata., The install event goes to the package’s PostHog telemetry endpoint, matching the runtime telemetry configuration., The required development-guide file contains documentation URL definitions; no attack behavior was identified there. - **Evidence against:** The manifest defines a postinstall hook, and the hook makes a network request; inspection found explicit consent gating and limited telemetry payloads. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @extenshi/mcp@0.15.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @extenshi/mcp@0.15.0 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.
