Lotics SDK and CLI for AI agents
AI Security Review
scanned 14d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install-time hook; prepublishOnly runs the build. The flagged telemetry is opt-in and targets the configured Lotics API, while ordinary authenticated requests use that same configured service destination.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Telemetry requires LOTICS_TELEMETRY=1; authenticated API requests occur during CLI or client use.
Impact
No confirmed credential disclosure to an unrelated recipient or other attack behavior was established.
Mechanism
The client sends authenticated requests to its configured API URL. When enabled, telemetry posts to that API's telemetry endpoint.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install-time hook; prepublishOnly runs the build. The flagged telemetry is opt-in and targets the configured Lotics API, while ordinary authenticated requests use that same configured service destination.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 95.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest points the CLI and library to built files; its only lifecycle hook is prepublishOnly, which runs the build.
- Telemetry is disabled unless LOTICS_TELEMETRY is set to 1, and the CLI passes its configured API URL to telemetry setup.
- Telemetry posts to the configured API's /v1/cli/telemetry endpoint.
- Normal authenticated API requests use the client's configured base URL and bearer key; the default API host is api.lotics.ai.
