Lotics SDK and CLI for AI agents
AI Security Review
scanned 22d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package has no install hook, and its apparent agent-configuration match is only an embedded reference entry. The network and credential handling inspected is tied to the configured Lotics API, with telemetry disabled by default; no concrete attack behavior was found.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Telemetry collection requires LOTICS_TELEMETRY=1; ordinary API requests occur when a user invokes CLI commands.
Impact
No unconsented credential disclosure, install-time mutation, or other attack behavior was identified.
Mechanism
When enabled, telemetry records command metadata and limited error text, then posts events to the configured API. The API defaults to api.lotics.ai.
AI rationale
The package has no install hook, and its apparent agent-configuration match is only an embedded reference entry. The network and credential handling inspected is tied to the configured Lotics API, with telemetry disabled by default; no concrete attack behavior was found.

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 lists prepublishOnly as a build command; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- The required agent-configuration match is an embedded reference-table entry naming documentation files and their readers.
- Telemetry requires LOTICS_TELEMETRY=1; its events contain command and flag names, argument shape and hash, and stderr text on failed commands.
- Authenticated requests use the configured API base URL, which defaults to https://api.lotics.ai; telemetry is posted to that API.
