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. Source inspection disproves the scanner's install-time and command-output-exfiltration implication. The remaining user-triggered agent configuration and default identifiable telemetry justify a warning, not a block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-10T01:11:00.795Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-10T01:12:31.966Z - **Download time:** 502 ms - **Static scan time:** 6398 ms - **AI review time:** 84271 ms - **Total time:** 91171 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 install-time attack surface was found. At runtime, explicit setup/init can configure PAPI MCP clients; md-mode tool calls also emit identifiable usage telemetry by default. - **Trigger:** Run the server and invoke an MCP tool in md mode, or explicitly run setup/init. - **Impact:** Can modify selected PAPI agent configuration and transmit Git/GitHub email plus limited usage metadata to the vendor endpoint. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T01:12:31.966Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Tool-triggered MCP configuration writes and default telemetry emission. - **Rationale:** Source inspection disproves the scanner's install-time and command-output-exfiltration implication. The remaining user-triggered agent configuration and default identifiable telemetry justify a warning, not a block. - **Files touched:** ~/.papi/install-id.json, .mcp.json, .cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/mcp.json, ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.hermes/config.yaml - **Network endpoints:** https://guewgygcpcmrcoppihzx.supabase.co/functions/v1/data-proxy, https://guewgygcpcmrcoppihzx.supabase.co/rest/v1/md\_adapter\_pings, https://getpapi.ai ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** dist/index.js automatically reads git/GitHub email for md-mode user ID., dist/index.js sends md-mode telemetry with install ID, user ID, project slug, tool name, and result metadata., dist/index.js can write PAPI MCP entries to project and user-scoped agent configs through explicit setup/init actions., dist/index.js executes git/gh commands for its project-management tools. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Config writes occur only through explicit CLI/MCP setup or init paths; reset prompts before removal., No remote payload download/eval chain or arbitrary shell execution was found., Observed endpoints are PAPI/Supabase service endpoints aligned with the package's hosted adapter. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @papi-ai/server@0.7.76. - Review the evidence and your use of @papi-ai/server@0.7.76 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.
