Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The apparent credential flow uses a Slack bot token to send signup notifications to Slack, while CLI installation and agent configuration require an explicit command. The manifest has no install hook, and the reviewed source did not show credentials being sent to an unrelated host. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T00:30:41.642Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T00:31:29.945Z - **Download time:** 757 ms - **Static scan time:** 533 ms - **AI review time:** 47012 ms - **Total time:** 48303 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; the flagged credential flow is a signup notification sent to Slack using a Slack bot token. - **Trigger:** Signup notifications follow web-app signup or team-join events; local component installation runs only when the user invokes install or setup. - **Impact:** No malicious credential theft, unrelated collection, or unauthorized default install action was identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T00:31:29.945Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The web app posts signup details to Slack's API. The CLI installs its MCP server and registers it with Claude Code when explicitly invoked. - **Rationale:** The apparent credential flow uses a Slack bot token to send signup notifications to Slack, while CLI installation and agent configuration require an explicit command. The manifest has no install hook, and the reviewed source did not show credentials being sent to an unrelated host. - **Network endpoints:** https://slack.com/api/chat.postMessage, https://api.withpolaris.ai ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle hooks; its executable entry points are the Polaris CLI and MCP server., The web app uses SIGNUP\_SLACK\_BOT\_TOKEN to post signup notifications to Slack's own API, with signup details directed to an internal channel., Package installation and Claude MCP registration are performed by the explicit install or setup commands., The daemon defaults to Polaris's API and allows the service URL to be overridden by configuration. - **Evidence against:** Signup notifications include personal details such as names and email addresses and go to a publisher-chosen Slack channel. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @lightupai/polaris@0.0.173. - Review the evidence and your use of @lightupai/polaris@0.0.173 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.
