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 package enables install-time telemetry that runs through a dependency’s postinstall hook and includes the installer’s git email domain, an identifying organizational detail. The limited payload and opt-out controls reduce the risk, but do not remove the concern with telemetry enabled during installation by default. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-02T17:17:33.100Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-02T17:18:34.114Z - **Download time:** 761 ms - **Static scan time:** 101 ms - **AI review time:** 60151 ms - **Total time:** 61014 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:** Install-time telemetry is enabled in the package manifest and collects an organizational identifier from git configuration. - **Trigger:** Installing the package runs the reova dependency’s postinstall tracker. - **Impact:** Installers’ machine and organizational metadata is transmitted automatically; this is undisclosed install-time telemetry, so warn users. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecce3761-061b-47d6-8e43-3f6e852fe902/1/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecce3761-061b-47d6-8e43-3f6e852fe902/1/npm-linux/index.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecce3761-061b-47d6-8e43-3f6e852fe902/1/npm-linux/src/collector.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecce3761-061b-47d6-8e43-3f6e852fe902/1/npm-linux/src/tracker.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecce3761-061b-47d6-8e43-3f6e852fe902/1/npm-linux/src/sender.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T17:18:34.114Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The tracker gathers package, runtime, machine and installation data plus the domain from ~/.gitconfig, then posts the payload to the configured telemetry endpoint. - **Rationale:** The package enables install-time telemetry that runs through a dependency’s postinstall hook and includes the installer’s git email domain, an identifying organizational detail. The limited payload and opt-out controls reduce the risk, but do not remove the concern with telemetry enabled during installation by default. - **Files touched:** ~/.gitconfig - **Network endpoints:** https://telemetry.reo.dev/data ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package manifest enables reova telemetry and configures https://telemetry.reo.dev/data., The reova dependency runs its tracker from a postinstall script., The install payload includes package and runtime details, machine specs, a random event ID, and the domain extracted from the installer’s git email., The tracker collects and sends data when the package is enabled and an endpoint is configured; the sender makes an HTTP(S) request. - **Evidence against:** The package itself declares no lifecycle scripts; the install-time behavior comes from its reova dependency., The collector extracts only the git email domain, not the full address, and its documented payload omits environment variables and file paths., The telemetry has a package-level enablement check and can be disabled with global opt-out settings. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ory/cline@1.9.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @ory/cline@1.9.0 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.
