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 scanner’s command-output-exfiltration claim is not supported by the inspected telemetry implementation. This is a real, user-invoked agent-configuration capability, but not concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-10T01:11:02.783Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-10T01:12:32.003Z - **Download time:** 505 ms - **Static scan time:** 4409 ms - **AI review time:** 84305 ms - **Total time:** 89220 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:** The package can configure first-party PAPI MCP integrations and AI-agent workflow files after an explicit CLI/MCP setup action. It also sends project API calls and tool telemetry to PAPI infrastructure. - **Trigger:** User runs the papi-server CLI or explicitly invokes its init/setup MCP tools. - **Impact:** Can modify requested project or selected user-scoped MCP configuration and transmit PAPI project data to the configured service. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/backfill-cycle-metrics.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T01:12:32.003Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** explicit AI-agent configuration/scaffolding and authenticated project API calls - **Rationale:** The scanner’s command-output-exfiltration claim is not supported by the inspected telemetry implementation. This is a real, user-invoked agent-configuration capability, but not concrete malicious behavior. - **Files touched:** .mcp.json, CLAUDE.md, .claude/settings.json, .cursor/rules/papi.mdc, ~/.papi/install-id.json - **Network endpoints:** https://guewgygcpcmrcoppihzx.supabase.co/functions/v1/data-proxy, https://guewgygcpcmrcoppihzx.supabase.co/rest/v1/md\_adapter\_pings, https://registry.npmjs.org/@papi-ai/server/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** dist/index.js exposes explicit init/setup commands that write MCP and AI-agent project configuration., dist/index.js setup scaffolding includes CLAUDE.md, .claude/settings.json, and Cursor rules., dist/index.js sends authenticated PAPI project operations and opt-out telemetry to its Supabase proxy. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or prepare lifecycle hook., CLI writes are reached only through explicit init/setup/reset commands or MCP tool calls., Git child-process use is for project/repository workflow operations; no arbitrary shell payload was found., Telemetry payloads shown contain tool metadata, project identifiers, and an install ID, not command output. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @papi-ai/server@0.7.71. - Review the evidence and your use of @papi-ai/server@0.7.71 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.
