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 flagged execution builds the CLI inside a validated worktree with npm lifecycle scripts disabled, and agent configuration writes occur during project initialization. The coordination credential flow sends a stored MemNexus key to the package’s own service as part of starting a team. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T21:46:16.771Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T21:47:27.309Z - **Download time:** 778 ms - **Static scan time:** 4684 ms - **AI review time:** 65075 ms - **Total time:** 70538 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 identified; reviewed process execution, project configuration writes, and coordination credential flow align with the CLI’s stated purpose. - **Trigger:** Build runs during explicit provisioning; configuration deployment runs during project initialization; token resolution runs during an explicit team start. - **Impact:** No malicious impact identified in the reviewed paths. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T21:47:27.309Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The build runs npm with lifecycle scripts ignored inside a checked worktree. Initialization deploys project agent configuration. Coordination sends the MemNexus user key to the configured coordination service. - **Rationale:** The flagged execution builds the CLI inside a validated worktree with npm lifecycle scripts disabled, and agent configuration writes occur during project initialization. The coordination credential flow sends a stored MemNexus key to the package’s own service as part of starting a team. - **Files touched:** dist/lib/cli-build.js, dist/commands/create.js, dist/commands/init.js, dist/commands/start.js, dist/lib/coordination-token.js, .claude/settings.json, CLAUDE.md, .claude/hooks/ - **Network endpoints:** https://mxagent.dev.memnexus.ai ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a CLI and declares \`prepublishOnly\` and \`prepare\`, with no \`preinstall\`, \`install\`, or \`postinstall\` script., The flagged process execution is \`npm ci\` and \`npm run build\` in a validated project worktree; \`npm ci\` uses \`--ignore-scripts\` and the build is reached during provisioning., Project agent configuration deployment is part of the \`new\`/init scaffold flow, which writes the project’s Claude settings and hooks., When \`start\` resolves a coordination token, the user key is sent in a request to the configured coordination service, which defaults to the package’s MemNexus service. - **Evidence against:** The CLI can automatically resolve a coordination token during \`start\`, including reading a stored MemNexus user key., The init scaffold writes files into the project’s \`.claude\` configuration directory. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @memnexus-ai/mx-agent-cli@0.1.299. - Review the evidence and your use of @memnexus-ai/mx-agent-cli@0.1.299 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.
