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 flagged process execution is part of an explicit upgrade command, and the telemetry path is gated by LOTICS\_TELEMETRY=1, disclosed in the README, and directed to the configured Lotics API. The package manifest declares no install-time hook that would run these behaviors automatically. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T13:32:48.245Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T13:33:49.065Z - **Download time:** 1011 ms - **Static scan time:** 4219 ms - **AI review time:** 55589 ms - **Total time:** 60820 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 package provides a Lotics CLI and client; its disclosed telemetry is opt-in. - **Trigger:** Telemetry requires LOTICS\_TELEMETRY=1; the installer pipeline runs only when the user invokes the upgrade command. - **Impact:** No malicious impact was identified in the inspected source. Opted-in telemetry shares command metadata and printed failure messages with the configured Lotics service. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T13:33:49.065Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Telemetry spools session metadata and failure messages, then posts batches to the configured Lotics API. The upgrade action runs a fixed Lotics installer command. - **Rationale:** The flagged process execution is part of an explicit upgrade command, and the telemetry path is gated by LOTICS\_TELEMETRY=1, disclosed in the README, and directed to the configured Lotics API. The package manifest declares no install-time hook that would run these behaviors automatically. - **Files touched:** ~/.lotics/telemetry-\.ndjson - **Network endpoints:** api.lotics.ai, registry.npmjs.org, lotics.ai ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a CLI binary and a separate client library; its only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which builds the package., Telemetry collection is disabled unless LOTICS\_TELEMETRY is set to "1"., Telemetry records command metadata and, on failure, the printed error message; arguments contribute a hash and shape rather than values., Telemetry posts to the configured Lotics API URL, which defaults to api.lotics.ai; the README discloses the collection and its opt-in setting., The upgrade command runs a fixed installer command only when the user invokes the upgrade action. - **Evidence against:** No install or postinstall hook is declared., The source examined contains no confirmed credential forwarding to an unrelated host or unrequested account action., The update check contacts registry.npmjs.org only to retrieve the latest package version. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @lotics/cli@0.318.33. - Review the evidence and your use of @lotics/cli@0.318.33 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.
