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 legitimate CLI for m8t-stack Azure/Foundry/GitHub workflows; suspicious primitives are package-aligned and user-invoked. There is no install-time execution or concrete exfiltration/persistence/control-hijack behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-02T22:48:26.052Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-02T22:49:05.917Z - **Download time:** 503 ms - **Static scan time:** 1707 ms - **AI review time:** 37654 ms - **Total time:** 39865 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. Risky primitives are part of an Azure/GitHub deployment CLI and are activated by explicit m8t commands, not install or import. - **Trigger:** user runs m8t CLI commands - **Impact:** No unconsented behavior identified by static inspection. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/cli.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-02T22:49:05.917Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** user-invoked cloud deployment and configuration automation - **Rationale:** Static inspection shows a legitimate CLI for m8t-stack Azure/Foundry/GitHub workflows; suspicious primitives are package-aligned and user-invoked. There is no install-time execution or concrete exfiltration/persistence/control-hijack behavior. - **Files touched:** ~/.m8t-stack/cli-config.yaml, ~/.m8t-stack/config.yaml, ~/.m8t-stack/github-app.json, ~/.m8t-stack/repo-root - **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com, https://management.azure.com, https://ai.azure.com/.default, https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp, https://api.openai.com/v1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence against:** package.json has no install/postinstall hooks; only prepublishOnly build script, dist/cli.js entrypoint only runs Clipanion CLI commands via main(), child\_process usage is for user-invoked az/gh/git/browser commands, network calls are aligned to Azure, GitHub, OpenAI SDK, and configured m8t gateway operations, local writes are user-invoked config/state under ~/.m8t-stack or temp dirs, no credential harvesting, persistence, destructive import-time behavior, or reviewer prompt manipulation found ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.16. - Review the evidence and your use of @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.16 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.
