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’s agent and skill installation behavior matches its CLI purpose, and no install-time attack was identified. However, ordinary status and update commands send runtime telemetry by default, including a persistent random project ID and, for removed skills, capability names, so this warrants a warning. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T12:40:15.593Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T12:41:11.515Z - **Download time:** 1017 ms - **Static scan time:** 108 ms - **AI review time:** 54796 ms - **Total time:** 55922 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:** Undisclosed runtime telemetry reports project capability update activity to the package’s service. - **Trigger:** A user runs skill status or skill update in a project with a lock file. - **Impact:** The service can associate project activity with a persistent random ID and may receive names of removed skills. - **Evidence paths:** dist/lib/telemetry.js, dist/commands/skill-status.js, dist/commands/skill-update.js, dist/lib/lock.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T12:41:11.515Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI POSTs a random project ID and update events to the service; sending can be disabled with AWOS\_TELEMETRY=0. - **Rationale:** The package’s agent and skill installation behavior matches its CLI purpose, and no install-time attack was identified. However, ordinary status and update commands send runtime telemetry by default, including a persistent random project ID and, for removed skills, capability names, so this warrants a warning. - **Network endpoints:** https://recruitment.awos.provectus.pro/telemetry ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes a CLI and has only a prepublishOnly build hook, not an install lifecycle hook., Running skill status sends telemetry automatically when a project lock file exists., Telemetry is disabled only when AWOS\_TELEMETRY is set to "0"; the POST includes a project ID and event data., Events for removed skills include the skill name., The project ID is generated as a random UUID., The default telemetry service is recruitment.awos.provectus.pro. - **Evidence against:** The CLI’s agent installation writes into the project’s .claude/agents directory as part of an explicit install command., The reviewed telemetry code sends project IDs and update events; no credential or file-content collection was identified. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @provectus/awos-recruitment@0.1.6. - Review the evidence and your use of @provectus/awos-recruitment@0.1.6 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.
