## 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:** 0.11.2
- **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.

Static inspection found no install lifecycle execution, credential exfiltration, remote payload execution, or destructive behavior. The observed agent setup is command-invoked and telemetry has explicit disable controls.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-24T02:19:40.315Z

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 malicious attack surface was identified. The CLI has opt-out telemetry and can write its own skills only through CLI execution.

- **Trigger:** Running the CLI, including the explicit init command.

- **Impact:** No confirmed malicious impact or unconsented install-time mutation was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-24T02:20:41.297Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** No automatic npm lifecycle hook is declared; init performs the package's requested setup work.

- **Rationale:** Static inspection found no install lifecycle execution, credential exfiltration, remote payload execution, or destructive behavior. The observed agent setup is command-invoked and telemetry has explicit disable controls.

- **Network endpoints:** https://z.taskless.io

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package scripts contain no npm preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., Telemetry can be disabled through TASKLESS\_TELEMETRY\_DISABLED or DO\_NOT\_TRACK., Agent-skill writes are part of the explicitly invoked init command.

- **Evidence against:** When enabled, telemetry records a GitHub owner and workspace-related dimensions.

## Affected versions and remediation
