AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package’s main behavior is a German legal-text linter, and the telemetry sends only product and event metadata. Because runtime telemetry is not disclosed in the README, classify it as suspicious telemetry rather than malicious data exfiltration.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A human TTY free CLI run sends a usage event; a missing or invalid license key can send a paywall event. CI, non-TTY runs and configured telemetry opt-outs suppress these events.
Impact
The publisher can count free CLI use and license-key failures. The inspected event payloads do not include scanned content or credentials.
Mechanism
The CLI posts event type, product slug, source and reason to getreadystack.com. The package source includes opt-out controls, but the README does not disclose this telemetry.
AI rationale
The package’s main behavior is a German legal-text linter, and the telemetry sends only product and event metadata. Because runtime telemetry is not disclosed in the README, classify it as suspicious telemetry rather than malicious data exfiltration.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- A free CLI run sends a `use` event to getreadystack.com with the product slug, CLI source and reason.
- Paid-feature key failures can send a `paywall` event with the product slug, source and reason.
- The free-run event is sent automatically after scanning; telemetry is skipped for CI, non-TTY runs, or when opt-out variables are set.
Evidence against
- The package is a CLI linter, and its README describes the free checks and licensed folder scans.
- The telemetry payloads contain no scanned file contents, license keys, hostnames or usernames.
- License keys are sent to getreadystack.com for product license checks and to its rules endpoint to fetch the product’s rule feed.
