The dependency source is unavailable in this snapshot. - **Rationale:** The README discloses runtime invocation reporting to Intellia, but this package provides no visible opt-out or details about what is reported. The available source is insufficient to confirm that the telemetry meets the stated conditions for a clean verdict. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 72.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package documents that each \`hutly\` invocation is reported to Intellia., Running \`hutly\` launches \`@intellia/cli\` with the original command arguments and environment; the payload and any opt-out behavior are not visible in this package. - **Evidence against:** The manifest describes this as a deprecated forwarder to \`@intellia/cli\`., The README discloses the invocation reporting as a way to find remaining callers of the old command. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @intellia/hutly-cli@1.29.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @intellia/hutly-cli@1.29.0 before allowing it.
