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. Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or credential redirect to an unofficial gateway. The flagged \`eval\` is example text, and agent skill setup is an explicit CLI operation. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T09:59:21.057Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T10:00:39.570Z - **Download time:** 1269 ms - **Static scan time:** 3085 ms - **AI review time:** 74159 ms - **Total time:** 78513 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 surface was identified in the inspected source. The flagged runtime patterns correspond to example rule content and explicit Taskless setup behavior. - **Trigger:** Agent skill setup is triggered by running \`taskless init\`; login is triggered by the user invoking authentication. - **Impact:** No malicious effect was identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T10:00:39.570Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI installs Taskless skills into detected project agent directories and uses a device authorization flow for login. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or credential redirect to an unofficial gateway. The flagged \`eval\` is example text, and agent skill setup is an explicit CLI operation. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json lists build, generation, and test scripts; no npm install lifecycle hook was found., Login uses device authorization through the configured Taskless API base and polls for authorization; the source does not show a fixed unofficial credential gateway., Agent skills are installed by the explicit \`taskless init\` command into detected project directories., The \`eval\` match is an embedded example in a rule demonstrating detection of unsafe code, not executable package logic. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.0-20261016095010x7fe4d17. - Review the evidence and your use of @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.0-20261016095010x7fe4d17 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.
