## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 18 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 0.14.29
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The CLI's default crash reporting attaches the logged-in account's email and user ID to Sentry events. This behavior is disclosed and can be disabled, but identifying details in runtime telemetry warrant a warning.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-02T12:00:59.318Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-02T12:01:56.584Z
- **Download time:** 768 ms
- **Static scan time:** 5697 ms
- **AI review time:** 50800 ms
- **Total time:** 57266 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:** Default runtime crash telemetry sends logged-in account identifiers to Sentry; no attack was identified beyond this privacy risk.

- **Trigger:** A CLI error eligible for capture, while telemetry is enabled.

- **Impact:** The telemetry provider receives identifying account details with crash reports.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T12:01:56.584Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI reads the saved access token or credential email, extracts the account subject and email, and attaches them to a Sentry crash report.

- **Rationale:** The CLI's default crash reporting attaches the logged-in account's email and user ID to Sentry events. This behavior is disclosed and can be disabled, but identifying details in runtime telemetry warrant a warning.

- **Files touched:** dist/cli.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://4abeaf940e214f8c69d1af0f3ae800f7@o4511121201627136.ingest.de.sentry.io/4511251477561424

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Crash reports sent to Sentry include the logged-in account's email and user ID., Telemetry is enabled unless disabled in config or with HOOKMYAPP\_TELEMETRY=off., Telemetry includes a Sentry endpoint and the package also discloses the account identifiers sent with crash reports.

- **Evidence against:** The package discloses crash and usage telemetry, including the account identifiers attached to crash reports., The disclosure says command arguments, file contents, and environment variable values are not sent, except feedback submitted intentionally., Telemetry can be disabled through config or HOOKMYAPP\_TELEMETRY=off., The CLI's production API profile uses HookMyApp's own API host; review found no confirmed unrelated credential redirect.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @gethookmyapp/cli@0.14.29.

- Review the evidence and your use of @gethookmyapp/cli@0.14.29 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.
