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 scanner's command-output/exfiltration characterization is not supported by source inspection: the package is a bundled Azure deployment CLI with explicit command handlers and no install lifecycle execution. Its telemetry and companion behaviors are disclosed, command-scoped, and package-aligned. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-11T00:57:52.448Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-11T00:58:54.675Z - **Download time:** 774 ms - **Static scan time:** 10765 ms - **AI review time:** 50686 ms - **Total time:** 62227 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 unconsented install-time or import-time attack surface was confirmed. Network, filesystem, and process actions are command-driven deployment and platform-management functions. - **Trigger:** User runs an m8t deployment, telemetry, or companion command. - **Impact:** Can modify the user's selected Azure, GitHub, local m8t, or companion resources as requested by commands. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/cli.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T00:58:54.675Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked Azure/GitHub/platform management CLI - **Rationale:** The scanner's command-output/exfiltration characterization is not supported by source inspection: the package is a bundled Azure deployment CLI with explicit command handlers and no install lifecycle execution. Its telemetry and companion behaviors are disclosed, command-scoped, and package-aligned. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** dist/cli.js has an explicit telemetry enroll command that POSTs an Entra token to the m8t ingest host., dist/cli.js can download and install a desktop companion, including login startup, only through CLI bootstrap/companion commands. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook; prepublishOnly only builds for publishing., dist/cli.js runs through registered user-invoked CLI commands, not import-time setup., Telemetry enrollment sends only schema/contact options and an Azure proof token; it is an explicit command., Companion downloads are SHA-256 checked and installed only through explicit/bootstrap deployment flows., child\_process use invokes declared tools such as az, git, tar, gh, and companion binaries for CLI operations. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.73. - Review the evidence and your use of @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.73 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.
