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. Source inspection found an install-time setup flow for this release's Hum core and a launcher that runs it for the selected project. The inspected evidence did not establish malicious behavior, so the package is clean. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T06:55:24.567Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T06:55:57.865Z - **Download time:** 1019 ms - **Static scan time:** 5130 ms - **AI review time:** 27149 ms - **Total time:** 33298 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 malicious attack was identified. The postinstall hook prepares Hum's matching Python core in a user-specific directory, and the launcher starts that core for the selected project. - **Trigger:** npm installation runs the postinstall hook; later, invoking the hum command starts the launcher. - **Impact:** These inspected actions implement the package's setup and coding-agent behavior; no concrete attack surface was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T06:55:57.865Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The installer uses uv to create an environment and install hum-cli at the package version. The launcher starts the Hum core and passes it the current working directory. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found an install-time setup flow for this release's Hum core and a launcher that runs it for the selected project. The inspected evidence did not establish malicious behavior, so the package is clean. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, dist/install.mjs, bin/hum.js, dist/cli.mjs - **Network endpoints:** https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1, https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines a postinstall hook that loads this release's installer., The installer sets up the matching hum-cli version in a user-specific Hum directory; it does not mutate the consuming project., The launcher starts the Hum core for the user's current working directory. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @metaphi-ai/hum@0.2.30. - Review the evidence and your use of @metaphi-ai/hum@0.2.30 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.
