## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 0.1.4
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 CLI sends undisclosed runtime telemetry to the package vendor by default in interactive sessions, which warrants a warning. The flagged licence key is the package’s own key sent to its licensing and rules services; I found no unrelated credential collection or exfiltration.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious

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, low-detail runtime telemetry is sent to the package vendor.

- **Trigger:** Running a free CLI command in an interactive terminal, or reaching a license prompt in an interactive CLI or MCP session.

- **Impact:** The vendor learns that the package was used or that a licence was missing or invalid.

- **Evidence paths:** cli.js, license.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T13:51:25.810Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The CLI posts usage or paywall events containing the package slug, source, and reason to getreadystack.com.

- **Rationale:** The CLI sends undisclosed runtime telemetry to the package vendor by default in interactive sessions, which warrants a warning. The flagged licence key is the package’s own key sent to its licensing and rules services; I found no unrelated credential collection or exfiltration.

- **Network endpoints:** getreadystack.com, api.polar.sh

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** A free interactive CLI run automatically sends a usage event containing the package slug, CLI source, and a fixed reason to getreadystack.com., License prompts also send a paywall event with the package slug, source, and reason to getreadystack.com.

- **Evidence against:** The telemetry is limited to product-use fields and is skipped by CI or when DO\_NOT\_TRACK=1 or READYSTACK\_NO\_TELEMETRY is set., The READYSTACK\_LICENSE value is the package’s own licence key, sent to Polar for validation and to Readystack’s own rules feed.

## Affected versions and remediation
