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 hook that installs the package’s matching core and a CLI that uses that core. The observed setup is package-aligned, with no concrete malicious behavior identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T06:56:34.358Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T06:57:09.070Z - **Download time:** 1010 ms - **Static scan time:** 762 ms - **AI review time:** 32939 ms - **Total time:** 34712 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. The install hook sets up this package’s matching core, and the CLI uses that core for its stated terminal-agent function. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall, or starting the CLI when its matching core is not installed. - **Impact:** The inspected behavior is package-aligned setup; no concrete attack surface was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T06:57:09.070Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The installer creates a versioned Python environment, installs the hum core, and stages the matching package with npm scripts disabled. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found an install-time setup hook that installs the package’s matching core and a CLI that uses that core. The observed setup is package-aligned, with no concrete malicious behavior identified. - **Files touched:** ~/.hum - **Network endpoints:** astral.sh ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines a hum CLI and a postinstall hook that runs this package’s installer., The postinstall hook checks the installed core version and installs it only when it differs from this package’s version., The installer sets up a Python environment and installs the hum core; it also fetches this package with npm scripts disabled for its versioned runtime directory., The CLI uses the installed package entrypoint and runs core setup when its installed core is missing or out of date. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @metaphi-ai/hum@0.2.36. - Review the evidence and your use of @metaphi-ai/hum@0.2.36 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.
