## 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:** 0.13.5-20261102164414x312732c
- **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 flows match the CLI’s purpose: login uses a device authorization flow with the Taskless service, while the launcher passes the project’s npm configuration to a temporary npm install. The manifest declares no lifecycle hooks, and the inspected 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:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-02T16:53:28.055Z

- **Total time:** 50051 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. The CLI contacts its Taskless service for authentication and uses npm for its launcher install.

- **Trigger:** Authentication runs when the user invokes login; launcher installation runs when the user invokes the relevant CLI workflow.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports the CLI’s login and launcher functions; no unrelated credential collection or covert execution was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T16:54:18.106Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Device authorization sends a device code to the configured Taskless service. The launcher temporarily supplies the project’s npm configuration to npm.

- **Rationale:** The flagged flows match the CLI’s purpose: login uses a device authorization flow with the Taskless service, while the launcher passes the project’s npm configuration to a temporary npm install. The manifest declares no lifecycle hooks, and the inspected code does not show credentials being sent to an unrelated host.

- **Files touched:** .taskless/config.json, .taskless/.auth-pending.json, launcher cache and temporary install files

- **Network endpoints:** https://app.taskless.io/cli, npm registry from project configuration

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **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 CLI defaults to the Taskless service URL, with an explicit environment or config override., Authentication uses a device authorization flow; token polling sends the device code to the configured Taskless service., The login flow starts after checking for an existing login and presenting the user with a browser authorization URL and code., The launcher copies project npm configuration into a temporary install directory so npm can use the configured registry and credentials.

- **Evidence against:** The scanner’s credential redirection lead is consistent with user-authorized Taskless login and the package’s temporary npm install flow; the inspected code does not show credentials sent to an unrelated collector.
