Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The inspected JavaScript excerpt does not establish agent configuration abuse or another concrete attack. The shipped native executable has material unresolved behavior in the available bounded analysis, so manual review is warranted. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-19T19:49:16.668Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-19T19:50:08.402Z - **Download time:** 13841 ms - **Static scan time:** 593 ms - **AI review time:** 37300 ms - **Total time:** 51734 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:** No concrete attack was established from the inspected JavaScript. The shipped native executable remains unresolved because its bounded analysis cannot establish which embedded code runs or whether other behavior exists. - **Trigger:** Unknown; the native executable’s activation behavior was not resolved by the available analysis. - **Impact:** Unknown native behavior remains unresolved; no specific effect or recipient was verified. - **Evidence paths:** bin/reason, .lpm-inspection-icRUvw/0-3673970a6d19.txt - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T19:50:08.402Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package ships a native CLI executable, but its embedded-source analysis is limited and does not resolve loader reachability or other native behavior. - **Rationale:** The inspected JavaScript excerpt does not establish agent configuration abuse or another concrete attack. The shipped native executable has material unresolved behavior in the available bounded analysis, so manual review is warranted. - **Files touched:** bin/reason ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** package.json identifies this as a darwin-arm64 CLI package., The inspected runtime location defines paths for .mcp.json and Claude command and agent directories; this excerpt does not establish a write to them., The native executable analysis contains only bounded embedded-source candidates and says they cannot establish loader reachability or rule out other behavior. - **Evidence against:** The inspected source did not establish a concrete attack chain. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-darwin-arm64@0.2.448. - Review the evidence and your use of @reason-machines/cli-darwin-arm64@0.2.448 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.
