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 credential-related code is in a launcher flow for installing the project's pinned Taskless CLI; it temporarily supplies the project npm configuration to npm and removes the copy afterward. The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed code does not show credentials being sent to an unrelated host. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T22:50:44.561Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T22:51:23.777Z - **Download time:** 253 ms - **Static scan time:** 3945 ms - **AI review time:** 35018 ms - **Total time:** 39216 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 identified. The flagged credential handling belongs to a project launcher that uses the project's npm configuration for a pinned package install. - **Trigger:** A user runs the Taskless CLI or a launcher generated by the Taskless installer. - **Impact:** Installs and runs the pinned Taskless CLI; the inspected code does not show npm credentials being sent to an unrelated collector. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T22:51:23.777Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** On a cache miss, the launcher runs npm ci for the version pinned in the project lockfile, temporarily copying the project's .npmrc into the install directory and removing it afterward. - **Rationale:** The credential-related code is in a launcher flow for installing the project's pinned Taskless CLI; it temporarily supplies the project npm configuration to npm and removes the copy afterward. The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed code does not show credentials being sent to an unrelated host. - **Files touched:** .taskless/.cache/, temporary install directory/.npmrc - **Network endpoints:** app.taskless.io, registry.npmjs.org, us.i.posthog.com, us-assets.i.posthog.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; its scripts are build and development commands., The package exports dist/index.js as its CLI entry point., The embedded launcher template describes installing the project-pinned Taskless CLI on first run, then running it from the project cache., The launcher copies the project .npmrc into a temporary install directory for npm, then removes that copy after npm ci., That npm ci invocation disables package scripts, audit, and funding requests., The launcher starts the cached CLI with the user's arguments and inherited environment. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.4-20261029223938xcd2357c. - Review the evidence and your use of @taskless/cli-nightly@0.13.4-20261029223938xcd2357c 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.
