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. The install hook creates a project-local workflow state file, while global OpenCode changes occur through the explicit setup command. Optional monitoring sends workflow metadata only when DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL is configured; no malicious behavior was identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-02T10:00:16.130Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-02T10:00:59.833Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 1122 ms - **AI review time:** 42069 ms - **Total time:** 43703 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 identified; observed file and configuration changes match the development workflow server's purpose. - **Trigger:** The postinstall hook creates project workflow state; global agent setup and optional monitor reporting require configuration or an explicit setup command. - **Impact:** No malicious behavior identified. Configured monitor reporting includes project and task metadata. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T10:00:59.833Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Creates a project-local state file, configures OpenCode when setup is explicitly run, and sends workflow metadata only when DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL is configured. - **Rationale:** The install hook creates a project-local workflow state file, while global OpenCode changes occur through the explicit setup command. Optional monitoring sends workflow metadata only when DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL is configured; no malicious behavior was identified. - **Files touched:** .state/workflow-state.json, ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json, AGENTS.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** Monitor reporting is disabled when DEVWF\_MONITOR\_URL is empty., When enabled, monitor snapshots contain workflow metadata such as project path, task description, phase, and plan., The global OpenCode setup runs through the explicit npm run setup command., The postinstall hook creates a workflow state file in the installer's project directory and skips creating it if it already exists. - **Evidence against:** The monitor can send identifying project and task metadata when configured with a URL., The explicit setup command modifies global OpenCode configuration and may install dependencies. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @programinglive/dev-workflow-mcp-server@1.20.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @programinglive/dev-workflow-mcp-server@1.20.3 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.
