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. Static inspection shows a broad operator CLI with powerful but documented, user-triggered Azure/GitHub actions and no lifecycle execution, hidden exfiltration, persistence, destructive install behavior, or unconsented AI-agent control-surface mutation. Scanner findings are explained by package-aligned management features. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-03T01:23:52.115Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-03T01:24:47.399Z - **Download time:** 756 ms - **Static scan time:** 1939 ms - **AI review time:** 52588 ms - **Total time:** 55284 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 confirmed malicious attack surface was found. The risky primitives are user-invoked cloud/operator actions consistent with an Azure/GitHub deployment CLI, not install-time or hidden behavior. - **Trigger:** Explicit m8t CLI subcommands such as brain link/create, deploy, bootstrap, eval, config, or team operations. - **Impact:** Can modify the user's configured Azure, GitHub, Foundry, and local m8t state when commands are intentionally run with credentials. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-03T01:24:47.399Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked Azure/GitHub management CLI with token use, repo writes, local config writes, and shelling out to required tools. - **Rationale:** Static inspection shows a broad operator CLI with powerful but documented, user-triggered Azure/GitHub actions and no lifecycle execution, hidden exfiltration, persistence, destructive install behavior, or unconsented AI-agent control-surface mutation. Scanner findings are explained by package-aligned management features. - **Files touched:** ~/.m8t-stack/cli-config.yaml, ~/.m8t-stack/config.yaml, ~/.m8t-stack/github-app.pem, ~/.m8t-stack/github-app.json, ~/.m8t-stack/foundry/\.yaml, .m8t/brain.yaml, apps/web/.env.local - **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com, https://management.azure.com, https://ai.azure.com, https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp, https://ghcr.io, https://graph.microsoft.com, https://api.openai.com/v1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** dist/cli.js uses child\_process spawn/spawnSync for az, gh, git, pnpm, brain-eval/brain-exam, and browser open commands., dist/cli.js reads Azure Key Vault GitHub App secrets and mints GitHub installation tokens., dist/cli.js user-invoked brain link/create writes .m8t/brain.yaml and deploys Foundry agent versions with MCP brain tooling. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no install/postinstall/prepare hook; only prepublishOnly builds before publishing., dist/cli.js main only dispatches Clipanion CLI commands from argv; no import-time network or command execution beyond CLI startup registration., Network calls target package-aligned Azure, GitHub, GHCR, OpenAI SDK, Copilot MCP, and configured gateway endpoints for deployment/management workflows., Local file writes are expected CLI state/output such as ~/.m8t-stack configs, GitHub App creds, temp brain repos, eval outputs, and project env files., README.md documents the Azure/GitHub management purpose and local config paths matching source behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.14. - Review the evidence and your use of @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.14 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.
