## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.20.51
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest and entrypoint indicate a CLI package, and inspected Hub execution code uses action-scoped approval. The imported @tangle-network/sandbox dependency was metadata-only in the available snapshot, so its runtime behavior remains unresolved; manual review is warranted.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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 behavior was established in the inspected CLI and Hub SDK paths. The package imports a core runtime dependency whose source was unavailable in the supplied snapshot, leaving a material review gap.

- **Trigger:** Importing or running the CLI; the unresolved dependency may be reached through CLI commands.

- **Impact:** The unresolved dependency prevents a reliable clean verdict; no specific malicious effect was confirmed.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-26T11:48:27.444Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI imports the sandbox SDK, but its implementation could not be verified from the available package source.

- **Rationale:** The manifest and entrypoint indicate a CLI package, and inspected Hub execution code uses action-scoped approval. The imported @tangle-network/sandbox dependency was metadata-only in the available snapshot, so its runtime behavior remains unresolved; manual review is warranted.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 83.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The manifest points to a CLI executable and declares the sandbox SDK as a runtime dependency., The bundled Hub SDK requires explicit approval for the approval-required execution path and validates the approval against the requested action., The CLI exposes agent telemetry setup through an explicit connect command.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected package entrypoint only imports the CLI bundle.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @tangle-network/sandbox-cli@0.20.51.

- Review the evidence and your use of @tangle-network/sandbox-cli@0.20.51 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.
