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 manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected flagged code supports normal CLI behavior rather than a concrete attack. The scanner's credential and payload findings are not substantiated by the inspected source. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T08:57:35.948Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T08:58:45.753Z - **Download time:** 1773 ms - **Static scan time:** 3060 ms - **AI review time:** 64972 ms - **Total time:** 69805 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 attack was identified in the inspected package source. - **Trigger:** No install-time trigger is declared; agent skill setup is reached through a CLI routine. - **Impact:** The inspected behavior does not establish credential disclosure, hidden code execution, or unconsented agent configuration changes. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T08:58:45.753Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The inspected credential client uses the configured Taskless API URL, and the apparent eval payload is sample content embedded in the bundle. - **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected flagged code supports normal CLI behavior rather than a concrete attack. The scanner's credential and payload findings are not substantiated by the inspected source. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook; its entrypoint is the CLI bundle., The CLI sends its bearer token through a client whose base URL comes from the Taskless API configuration, with the Taskless service URL as fallback., Agent skill files are written by an explicit setup routine that detects project agent directories; the flagged location is a detector entry., The apparent eval payload is embedded in a sample rule explaining why eval should be flagged, not executed by the CLI. - **Evidence against:** The static credential redirect finding is not established by the inspected code: the API destination is configurable and defaults to the Taskless service endpoint., The payload-loader finding is not established: the inspected eval example is documentation content embedded in the bundle. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.0-20261016085136x826cf88. - Review the evidence and your use of @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.0-20261016085136x826cf88 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.
