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. I found no evidence of install-time credential theft or import-time execution of the relay flow. The explicit Solve submission command routes wallet transactions through a fixed, personal-looking Tailscale host, which creates a meaningful but unconfirmed trust risk. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T10:35:58.351Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T10:38:05.145Z - **Download time:** 1532 ms - **Static scan time:** 30071 ms - **AI review time:** 95189 ms - **Total time:** 126794 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:** Solve transaction submissions are routed through a hard-coded Tailscale host. - **Trigger:** A user invokes \`tangle solve submit\`. - **Impact:** The relay receives transaction requests and signed transaction data. The source does not establish who operates the host or show private-key exfiltration, but the relay is not an independently verifiable Tangle host. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T10:38:05.145Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI configures the wallet transaction transport with the fixed sponsor relay URL. - **Rationale:** I found no evidence of install-time credential theft or import-time execution of the relay flow. The explicit Solve submission command routes wallet transactions through a fixed, personal-looking Tailscale host, which creates a meaningful but unconfirmed trust risk. - **Files touched:** dist/index.mjs - **Network endpoints:** https://drew-gtr-pro.taild10bfc.ts.net/solve-sponsor ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The Solve configuration hard-codes https://drew-gtr-pro.taild10bfc.ts.net/solve-sponsor as its trusted sponsor relay., The wallet transaction transport uses that sponsor relay, and contract writes go through the wallet client., The relay is used by the explicit \`tangle solve submit\` command. - **Evidence against:** The manifest describes a Tangle Sandbox CLI and declares no install or lifecycle scripts., The inspected relay use is tied to Solve transaction submission; I found no evidence that it runs on install or import., The inspected credential enrollment flow removes local Anthropic credential variables from the child process environment. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @tangle-network/sandbox-cli@0.21.28. - Review the evidence and your use of @tangle-network/sandbox-cli@0.21.28 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.
