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 confirmed attack behavior. The flagged network use aligns with Taskless telemetry and authentication, and the launcher uses npm with scripts disabled while removing its temporary npm configuration copy. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-23T08:35:08.430Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-23T08:36:10.556Z - **Download time:** 1023 ms - **Static scan time:** 3846 ms - **AI review time:** 57257 ms - **Total time:** 62126 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. The CLI uses Taskless authentication and telemetry endpoints, with telemetry opt-out controls. - **Trigger:** Running the CLI or explicitly invoking its login command. - **Impact:** No confirmed unauthorized credential transfer, destructive behavior, or install-time attack was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-23T08:36:10.556Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Login requests use the Taskless API URL, which defaults to the Taskless service; telemetry checks opt-out settings before initialization. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed attack behavior. The flagged network use aligns with Taskless telemetry and authentication, and the launcher uses npm with scripts disabled while removing its temporary npm configuration copy. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-2cd20a6f-32f2-4b57-9107-9b2001fffcaf/0/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-2cd20a6f-32f2-4b57-9107-9b2001fffcaf/0/npm-linux/dist/loader.mjs, .lpm-dependency-evidence-2cd20a6f-32f2-4b57-9107-9b2001fffcaf/1/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-2cd20a6f-32f2-4b57-9107-9b2001fffcaf/2/npm-linux/package.json - **Network endpoints:** https://z.taskless.io, https://app.taskless.io/cli ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes the CLI entry point and lists no install lifecycle hook., Telemetry can be disabled through environment settings or project configuration; its collector is the Taskless endpoint., The API URL defaults to Taskless and can be changed through explicit environment or configuration settings; login uses it for device authorization and token polling., The inspected tsx and platform-specific ast-grep manifests and tsx loader show ordinary dependency metadata and loader behavior. - **Evidence against:** The launcher temporarily copies project npm configuration for installation, but removes it afterward and runs npm with lifecycle scripts ignored. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.4-20261022195405x50b7ee6. - Review the evidence and your use of @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.4-20261022195405x50b7ee6 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.
