## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.13.4-20261026181356xfcb2a39
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 hook or evidence of the reported credential redirection. The executable’s inspected credential flow uses the configured Taskless API for device authorization and stores the returned token in the project directory.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-28T02:07:05.742Z

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 source. The credential and network behavior supports the CLI’s project login flow.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI’s authentication flow.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports project authentication; no credential redirection or confirmed attack surface was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T02:07:41.810Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The CLI requests a device code from the configured Taskless API, polls for authorization, and saves the returned token in the project configuration directory.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install hook or evidence of the reported credential redirection. The executable’s inspected credential flow uses the configured Taskless API for device authorization and stores the returned token in the project directory.

- **Files touched:** .taskless/.auth.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://app.taskless.io/cli

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json lists build and development scripts but no install lifecycle hook; the executable entry is dist/index.js., The CLI uses the Taskless service by default and allows an API URL to be set through configuration or the environment., Login requests a device code, waits for authorization, then saves the returned token for the selected project., The saved token is kept under the project’s .taskless directory., The inspected tsx dependency is a TypeScript runner, and its loader imports its runtime modules., The inspected ast-grep optional packages are platform-specific native tool packages.
