FlyDocs AI CLI — install, setup, and manage FlyDocs projects
AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is a real conditional credential-exposure capability, not an automatic install-time attack. The default service is package-aligned, but the unrestricted endpoint override and credential-bearing agent settings write warrant a warning.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Run flydocs init, update, or another reconciliation path with OTel policy enabled.
Impact
An operator-controlled relay or OTel destination could receive the FlyDocs API credential after the user invokes the CLI.
Mechanism
Configurable relay credential forwarding and managed OTel settings writes.
AI rationale
This is a real conditional credential-exposure capability, not an automatic install-time attack. The default service is package-aligned, but the unrestricted endpoint override and credential-bearing agent settings write warrant a warning.
Evidence
dist/cli.js.flydocs/credentials.json~/.flydocs/credentials~/.claude/settings.json.claude/settings.json
Network endpoints1
app.flydocs.ai
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package has no npm install lifecycle hook; its executable is the user-invoked CLI.
- The CLI loads a FlyDocs API key from an environment variable or local credential files.
- A relay URL environment variable can replace the default endpoint, and the API key is sent as a Bearer credential.
- Server-supplied OTel settings substitute that API key into a header and can target the user-global Claude settings file.
- The init flow pulls configuration from the server and later applies the managed OTel block.
Evidence against
- The default relay host is app.flydocs.ai, which is aligned with the package name.
- The credential forwarding and settings mutation require CLI runtime activity rather than occurring at package installation.
