## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface was established. The package is a user-invoked AI coding CLI with provider networking and a self-update check.

- **Trigger:** User runs the yorn CLI interactively.

- **Impact:** Expected user-authorized coding-agent capabilities; no confirmed exfiltration or install-time mutation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/yorn.cjs, dist/skills/screenshot/scripts/ensure\_macos\_permissions.sh, dist/skills/screenshot/scripts/take\_screenshot.ps1

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-23T06:18:02.251Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** AI-agent operation, provider authentication, and package self-update.

- **Rationale:** Direct inspection found no install-time execution or concrete credential-exfiltration chain. Static credential/network findings are consistent with the advertised AI-provider CLI and its explicit screenshot tooling.

- **Files touched:** dist/yorn.cjs, ~/.yorn/agent/auth.json

- **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org, radius.yorn.dev

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for:** Only prepublishOnly lifecycle hook; no install-time hook., Bin is a user-invoked coding-agent CLI., Interactive startup includes a documented self-update check.

- **Evidence against:** No source evidence of credential harvesting or forwarding to an unrelated endpoint., Provider API-key handling matches the advertised AI-agent function., Screenshot helpers are explicit, permission-gated user tools.
