Static policy retained a warning. The static scanner classified the package as malicious with confidence of at least 85%. A critical static finding has confidence of at least 90%. These conditions do not mean that the AI confirmed malicious behavior. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No attack was identified in the inspected source. The agent instruction file is written only through an explicit CLI setup flow. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-08T22:03:47.713Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-08T22:04:31.734Z - **Download time:** 760 ms - **Static scan time:** 13078 ms - **AI review time:** 30181 ms - **Total time:** 44021 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 in the inspected source. The agent instruction file is written only through an explicit CLI setup flow. - **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI setup flow and requests agent documentation or confirms its creation interactively. - **Impact:** No malicious effect was established from the inspected behavior. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T22:04:31.734Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI writes generated project guidance; API requests use the configured API endpoint and bearer token. - **Rationale:** The package has no install-time execution hook, and its agent configuration write is gated by explicit CLI setup consent. The credential and network patterns inspected are part of the configurable Granular API client; no concrete attack behavior was found. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Final policy explanation:** The AI recommended clean. Static policy retained a warning. The static scanner classified the package as malicious with confidence of at least 85%. A critical static finding has confidence of at least 90%. These conditions do not mean that the AI confirmed malicious behavior. - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json has only a prepublishOnly build hook; it declares no install-time hook., The CLI writes AGENTS.md only when requested with an option or after an interactive confirmation., The CLI API client sends its configured bearer token to the configured API base URL., The required agent-evals bundles import filesystem, OpenAI, and Automerge modules; the required SDK bundles import Automerge. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @granular-software/sdk@0.4.74. - Review the evidence and your use of @granular-software/sdk@0.4.74 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.
