AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe reviewed network requests serve package licensing and subscription rule updates. The source does not show the key or project data being sent to an unrelated collector.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Running the CLI starts the rule-feed check; it makes a request when a license key is configured and the cached feed is due for refresh.
Impact
The source shows license and rule-feed access, with no unrelated credential collection or project-data upload identified.
Mechanism
The CLI retrieves rules from getreadystack.com using the configured package license key. License checks send the key to api.polar.sh.
AI rationale
The reviewed network requests serve package licensing and subscription rule updates. The source does not show the key or project data being sent to an unrelated collector.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 90.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The CLI entrypoint fetches a rule feed at startup, before processing its command-line arguments.
- The feed comes from the package publisher’s getreadystack.com service and uses the configured package license key to retrieve rules.
- The README describes the key as a license for the package’s paid folder-sweep, report, and CI features.
- When license validation is needed, the source sends the key to Polar’s license-validation endpoint.
