This report does not record a matching static-policy override reason. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No install-time or covert attack was identified. The package is a user-invoked CLI for the TODOforAI service, and the remote bridge installer runs only as part of that command when the companion binary is missing. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-23T23:35:55.037Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-23T23:37:00.126Z - **Download time:** 771 ms - **Static scan time:** 3858 ms - **AI review time:** 60458 ms - **Total time:** 65089 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 install-time or covert attack was identified. The package is a user-invoked CLI for the TODOforAI service, and the remote bridge installer runs only as part of that command when the companion binary is missing. - **Trigger:** A user runs the published CLI for a watch-capable todo command without --no-bridge. - **Impact:** Network use and a local companion install stay tied to the product the user launched. No unconsented credential export, agent-config hijack, or lifecycle payload was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-23T23:37:00.126Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The process authenticates to the configured TODOforAI API and, if todoforai-bridge is absent, runs the documented vendor installer and starts that local bridge. - **Rationale:** There is no npm install lifecycle hook, self-install chain, or hidden exfiltration. Remote shell install of the companion bridge is gated by an explicit CLI run, logged, and pointed at the vendor host. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Final policy explanation:** The AI recommended clean, but the final policy action is warn. This report does not record a matching static-policy override reason. - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json publishes a Node CLI with bin entries only. scripts are build, prepublishOnly, start, and dev, with no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The bundled CLI defaults API traffic to https://api.todofor.ai and reads the caller API key from flags, TODOFORAI env, or the local todoforai credentials file., A missing companion binary is fetched only after the user runs a watch-capable command, and only when --no-bridge, --no-watch, and --isolated are not set. The installer URL is the fixed vendor host https://todofor.ai/bridge and the step is printed to stderr. - **Evidence against:** On Linux and macOS, that user-run path executes curl of the vendor installer piped to sh and may start todoforai-bridge in the background. That is first-party setup for the stated CLI, not an install-time or hidden payload. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @todoforai/cli@0.1.55. - Review the evidence and your use of @todoforai/cli@0.1.55 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.
