Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The CLI sends runtime command telemetry to its configured gateway by default, with an environment-variable opt-out. The inspected telemetry contains command details and masked errors rather than clear evidence of secret theft, so this is suspicious telemetry rather than malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-04T08:23:41.939Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-04T08:24:38.224Z - **Download time:** 776 ms - **Static scan time:** 825 ms - **AI review time:** 54683 ms - **Total time:** 56285 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:** Undisclosed runtime telemetry is sent during CLI use. - **Trigger:** Running a CLI command; telemetry is enabled by default. - **Impact:** The service can receive command activity, selected flags, timing, status and masked error text. - **Evidence paths:** dist/lib/command.js, dist/lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T08:24:38.224Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI records command events and posts them to the configured gateway. TELEMETRY=0, false or off disables collection. - **Rationale:** The CLI sends runtime command telemetry to its configured gateway by default, with an environment-variable opt-out. The inspected telemetry contains command details and masked errors rather than clear evidence of secret theft, so this is suspicious telemetry rather than malicious behavior. - **Network endpoints:** configured gateway base URL + /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** CLI commands automatically record command names, selected flags, status, duration and error messages for telemetry., Telemetry is enabled by default; it can be disabled with the TELEMETRY environment variable set to 0, false or off., The CLI sends telemetry events to /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry on its configured gateway. - **Evidence against:** Telemetry includes package/runtime metadata and command events; the inspected code does not show automatic collection of credentials or file contents., Error messages are masked for common secrets and home-directory paths before being included., The telemetry request uses the configured gateway and the CLI's configured API key. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @marsapi/cli@0.0.162. - Review the evidence and your use of @marsapi/cli@0.0.162 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.
