Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Inspected package source shows product-aligned provider discovery, configured-server connection, and runtime provisioning, with no confirmed attack. A selected runtime dependency was not fully source-reviewed, so the package cannot be marked clean on this evidence. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 78.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-23T16:15:31.397Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-23T16:16:41.067Z - **Download time:** 764 ms - **Static scan time:** 1419 ms - **AI review time:** 67486 ms - **Total time:** 69670 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 attack was identified in the inspected package code. Review remains unresolved because selected runtime dependency source was not fully available. - **Trigger:** The runner starts and loads its runtime dependencies. - **Impact:** The package's own inspected behavior did not establish an attack; the unavailable dependency source prevents a clean determination. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/connection.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-23T16:16:41.067Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package imports socket.io-client and declares Playwright, but the bounded dependency review did not include all of their source. - **Rationale:** Inspected package source shows product-aligned provider discovery, configured-server connection, and runtime provisioning, with no confirmed attack. A selected runtime dependency was not fully source-reviewed, so the package cannot be marked clean on this evidence. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/connection.js - **Network endpoints:** https://api.melaya.org, https://api.anthropic.com, https://api.github.com/copilot\_internal/v2/token, https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/releases/latest/download/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook; its prepublishOnly script only builds the package., The CLI requires a runner token and defaults to the Melaya server; the connection sends that token to the configured server., The inspected provider discovery code sends credentials to the matching Anthropic and GitHub APIs., The package declares socket.io-client and Playwright, and imports socket.io-client in its runtime connection module; source for these selected dependencies was not fully available in the bounded review. - **Evidence against:** No concrete malicious behavior was established in the inspected package source., The Python bootstrap fetches uv from the Astral GitHub release URL; browser provisioning is described as opt-in. These execution-related findings have identifiable product functions. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @melaya/runner@1.1.62. - Review the evidence and your use of @melaya/runner@1.1.62 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.
