AI Security Review
scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package sends default runtime usage telemetry on interactive free CLI runs, and the README does not disclose it. The event contains only the package slug, source, and reason, so this supports a warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
A user runs the CLI interactively on a free check.
Impact
The publisher learns that an interactive CLI run occurred, despite no disclosure in the README.
Mechanism
The CLI posts a use event containing the package slug, CLI source, and free-run reason to getreadystack.com/api/ev; opt-outs are available.
AI rationale
The package sends default runtime usage telemetry on interactive free CLI runs, and the README does not disclose it. The event contains only the package slug, source, and reason, so this supports a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 95.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- After a free CLI run, the program calls pingUse.
- pingUse sends a use event with the package slug, CLI source, and free-run reason to getreadystack.com.
- The event is sent for interactive runs by default, with opt-outs, but the README does not disclose this telemetry.
Evidence against
- The telemetry is limited to the package slug, event source, and reason; the code does not include scanned file contents or project details in the event.
- The CLI skips this telemetry when DO_NOT_TRACK=1, READYSTACK_NO_TELEMETRY is set, or CI is set.
- The manifest has a CLI entry point and no lifecycle scripts.
