The remote updater is limited to a separate managed ~/.ws installation path. - **Trigger:** A user invokes the ws command from an npm installation. - **Impact:** No install-time mutation, exfiltration, or remote execution was confirmed for this npm package path. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-28T13:57:25.648Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked CLI with an unreachable managed-install updater branch. - **Rationale:** The package has no lifecycle hooks, and its only npm entrypoint is a user-invoked command. Although cli.js embeds a concerning silent updater, its explicit ~/.ws location gate prevents that branch from running when this package is launched from node\_modules. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The bundled CLI contains a remote self-update mechanism that can download and silently execute an installer, but it is gated to a managed installation under ~/.ws. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or other lifecycle script., The only npm entrypoint is the user-invoked ws command., The self-update gate rejects an entrypoint outside ~/.ws, so an npm-installed cli.js does not activate it., No source evidence shows automatic credential harvesting, foreign agent-config mutation, or exfiltration during npm install. ## Public findings ### 1.
