## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Network and execution capabilities are command-scoped administrative functions for the advertised Azure/GitHub platform.

- **Trigger:** User explicitly runs an m8t command.

- **Impact:** No unconsented install-time execution, exfiltration, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation found.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/cli.js, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T00:58:23.935Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** CLI deployment and platform-management operations

- **Rationale:** Scanner findings reflect the CLI's intended cloud-management features. Source inspection found no install hook, stealth trigger, unrelated data receiver, or concrete exfiltration chain.

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.github.com, https://management.azure.com, https://ai.azure.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no install lifecycle hook; prepublishOnly only builds before publishing., dist/cli.js is a user-invoked m8t CLI entrypoint, not import-time background code., Azure/GitHub requests implement named deployment, Foundry, and GitHub-App commands., Child-process calls invoke az, gh, git, or pnpm with fixed command names/argument arrays., Credential material is used for Azure/GitHub authentication; no unrelated receiver or credential-export flow found., Companion login persistence is only under explicit m8t companion install/repair commands.
