Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The inspected executable behavior is consistent with a user-activated browser automation client, without install hooks, hidden recipients, or broad control-surface mutation. Configurable service authentication and page-scoped JavaScript execution do not establish malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-30T07:35:12.341Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-30T07:36:48.370Z - **Download time:** 773 ms - **Static scan time:** 466 ms - **AI review time:** 94790 ms - **Total time:** 96029 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 confirmed attack surface was identified. Inspected process execution, browser scripting, and authenticated service communication support the browser CLI. - **Trigger:** The start command or an explicit private keeper configuration activates browser operation. - **Impact:** Browser automation and private runtime state changes are expected effects; no malicious effect was identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-30T07:36:48.370Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI launches Chrome, processes browser operations, and communicates with its configured service; no covert payload execution or credential export was established. - **Rationale:** The inspected executable behavior is consistent with a user-activated browser automation client, without install hooks, hidden recipients, or broad control-surface mutation. Configurable service authentication and page-scoped JavaScript execution do not establish malicious behavior. - **Network endpoints:** https://r5d.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines a browser CLI with no install lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency., chrome-launcher.mjs launches the selected Chrome executable with argument arrays and rejects the ordinary Chrome profile., browser-runtime.mjs executes supplied JavaScript inside the browser page for the requested run\_js operation., personal-main.mjs sends authenticated requests to the configured browser service with redirects rejected., main.mjs starts the personal browser through the explicit start command. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.191-prod.1790750362085.g90d9f28d6e94474fdf575d373a2aec97f4dcc577. - Review the evidence and your use of @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.191-prod.1790750362085.g90d9f28d6e94474fdf575d373a2aec97f4dcc577 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.
