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. This warrants a warning because a custom API host receives the saved bearer token without a destination allowlist. The source does not show a package-selected recipient or a fixed gateway, so the conditional behavior does not establish malicious credential theft. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-21T09:14:08.234Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-21T09:15:36.605Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 3721 ms - **AI review time:** 84139 ms - **Total time:** 88371 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:** A configured API host can receive the user's Taskless session token. This is conditional credential exposure; the package does not select a fixed unrelated recipient. - **Trigger:** The user sets TASKLESS\_API\_URL or configures apiUrl in the local Taskless configuration. - **Impact:** The configured endpoint can receive the Taskless session token. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T09:15:36.605Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI builds its API client with that host and attaches the saved token as a bearer credential to API requests. - **Rationale:** This warrants a warning because a custom API host receives the saved bearer token without a destination allowlist. The source does not show a package-selected recipient or a fixed gateway, so the conditional behavior does not establish malicious credential theft. - **Files touched:** dist/index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://app.taskless.io/cli ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The CLI reads a Taskless token from the environment or saved authentication., The API host can be set through TASKLESS\_API\_URL or local configuration; the default is Taskless's API., The shared API client sends the token as a bearer credential, and an API caller uses that client for requests. - **Evidence against:** The default API host is https://app.taskless.io/cli; the inspected source does not establish a fixed unrelated recipient., The exposure depends on a user-configured API host; no package-selected gateway or install-time credential transfer was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.3-20261021090255xd06b489. - Review the evidence and your use of @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.3-20261021090255xd06b489 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.
