Lotics SDK and CLI for AI agents
AI Security Review
scanned 23d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no npm install hook, the flagged agent location indexes documentation, and telemetry is explicitly opt-in and sent to the configured API service. The inspected source does not establish credential theft, host fingerprint exfiltration, or another concrete attack.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Telemetry activates only when LOTICS_TELEMETRY is set to 1; SDK requests follow caller-invoked CLI or library operations.
Impact
No confirmed malicious impact; the observed network behavior supports optional diagnostics and normal service operations.
Mechanism
Telemetry posts command events to the configured API endpoint using the API key for that endpoint. The flagged agent location is documentation metadata, not an agent configuration write.
AI rationale
The manifest has no npm install hook, the flagged agent location indexes documentation, and telemetry is explicitly opt-in and sent to the configured API service. The inspected source does not establish credential theft, host fingerprint exfiltration, or another concrete attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 96.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json points the executable to dist/src/cli.js and exports dist/src/client.js.
- The manifest’s lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs the build; it has no npm install hook.
- The required agent-integration location indexes embedded CLI documentation and does not configure an agent.
- Telemetry collection requires LOTICS_TELEMETRY=1, and the startup installer checks that gate.
- Telemetry sends events to the configured API base URL, which defaults to api.lotics.ai; ordinary SDK requests use that same base URL with the supplied API key.
- Opt-in telemetry can include session and command details and failed-command error text.
