FRAGMENT CLI
AI Security Review
scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe CLI sends undisclosed runtime telemetry to PostHog by default, including the SHELL environment value. This is suspicious telemetry; the observed event does not include credentials or command input.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
The user runs a CLI command; telemetry is enabled unless DISABLE_CLI_ANALYTICS=true is set.
Impact
The package reports command usage and machine runtime metadata to a third-party analytics host without documenting this collection in the package.
Mechanism
The CLI captures the command name and runtime properties, including the SHELL environment value, and sends them through the bundled PostHog client.
AI rationale
The CLI sends undisclosed runtime telemetry to PostHog by default, including the SHELL environment value. This is suspicious telemetry; the observed event does not include credentials or command input.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 94.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Running a CLI command sends a PostHog event by default; disabling it requires setting DISABLE_CLI_ANALYTICS=true.
- The event includes the command name, architecture, platform, beta status, and the SHELL environment value.
- The bundled PostHog client defaults to https://us.i.posthog.com.
- The bin entry launches the CLI command dispatcher, which triggers command initialization.
Evidence against
- The observed analytics event contains usage and runtime metadata, not credentials or command input.
- The package manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook.
