@hs-x/cli@0.4.0
HS-X CLI — init, validate, connect, dev, deploy, promote, rollback, doctor, sync. Installs the `hs-x` command.
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package automatically sends deployment telemetry to its own service after an unlinked Cloudflare deploy, including project and deploy identifiers. This is undisclosed runtime telemetry rather than credential theft, so it warrants a warning rather than a publish block.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
After a successful non-dry-run Cloudflare deploy when the project is unlinked and a machine secret exists.
Impact
The service receives deployment and project identifiers without a separate telemetry choice; this is undisclosed runtime telemetry.
Mechanism
The CLI posts an authenticated deploy.succeeded event containing deployment identifiers to the resolved control-plane URL, which defaults to api.hs-x.dev.
AI rationale

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 87.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- A successful, non-dry-run Cloudflare deploy in an unlinked project triggers the event when a machine secret exists.
- The event sends a machine bearer and deploy details, including project ID, deploy ID and environment, to the resolved control-plane URL; its default is api.hs-x.dev.
- The machine secret is a locally generated bearer capability for machine event access.
- Deploy asks for consent to apply the plan, but that prompt does not identify the separate deploy event.
Evidence against
- The event is tied to a successful deploy, which is the package’s stated purpose.
- The event goes to the HS-X control plane, and the machine secret is locally generated rather than a discovered third-party credential.
- Deploy mutations require user consent.
