Lotics SDK and CLI for AI agents
AI Security Review
scanned 25d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no concrete malicious behavior. The suspicious scanner signals are consistent with documented CLI functions: opt-in telemetry to the configured API and subprocess use for explicit build or packaging work.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Telemetry runs only when `LOTICS_TELEMETRY=1`; build and packaging subprocesses run when their corresponding CLI operations are invoked.
Impact
The inspected behavior supports ordinary CLI telemetry and packaging; no confirmed attack surface was established.
Mechanism
Opted-in telemetry batches CLI events for the configured API, while build and packaging operations invoke npm or tar with operation-specific arguments.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no concrete malicious behavior. The suspicious scanner signals are consistent with documented CLI functions: opt-in telemetry to the configured API and subprocess use for explicit build or packaging work.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json assigns `prepublishOnly` only to `npm run build`; the published CLI is exposed through `dist/src/cli.js`.
- The cited agent integration location labels `AGENTS.md` as CLI reference material; it contains no configuration mutation there.
- Telemetry is disabled unless `LOTICS_TELEMETRY` equals `1`, and its event submission uses the configured Lotics API endpoint.
- The inspected source did not establish host identity theft, credential redirection, or command output exfiltration.
Evidence against
- The CLI can spawn npm and tar for explicit build or packaging operations, and can submit opted-in telemetry authenticated to the configured API endpoint.
