- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.13.4-20261028211351x0ca54ae
- **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.

The flagged credential and process activity is consistent with the CLI’s Taskless login and pinned launcher installation. Runtime telemetry is disclosed and can be disabled; the inspected source did not show an attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%

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. The CLI uses Taskless authentication and disclosed, opt-out runtime telemetry.

- **Trigger:** Authentication requests occur when the user invokes login; telemetry is emitted during CLI activity.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential transfer or other malicious behavior was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T22:48:08.512Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI uses its configured Taskless API for device authorization and sends anonymous usage telemetry with an opt-out.

- **Rationale:** The flagged credential and process activity is consistent with the CLI’s Taskless login and pinned launcher installation. Runtime telemetry is disclosed and can be disabled; the inspected source did not show an attack.

- **Files touched:** .taskless/taskless.json, .taskless/.cache/

- **Network endpoints:** app.taskless.io, z.taskless.io, eu.i.posthog.com, eu-assets.i.posthog.com, us.i.posthog.com, us-assets.i.posthog.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exports dist/index.js as its main import and CLI entry point; no install lifecycle scripts are declared., The Taskless API URL defaults to https://app.taskless.io/cli; TASKLESS\_API\_URL and a saved Taskless config can override it., Device authorization sends a repository URL, when present, to the configured Taskless API for login., Runtime telemetry is disclosed and can be disabled with TASKLESS\_TELEMETRY\_DISABLED=1 or telemetry:false in .taskless/taskless.json., The launcher installs its pinned package with npm ci --ignore-scripts and removes the copied project .npmrc afterward.
