Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The install hook sends default-enabled installation telemetry to the package’s analytics service before the user sees the install message, which warrants a warning about the lack of affirmative install-time consent. The flagged CLI picker operation only renders hidden labels; unresolved dependency source remains outside this conclusion. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-22T16:17:43.330Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-22T16:20:13.351Z - **Download time:** 1545 ms - **Static scan time:** 3170 ms - **AI review time:** 145304 ms - **Total time:** 150021 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:** The npm postinstall hook records and flushes default-enabled installation telemetry. This exposes installation metadata to the package’s analytics service without affirmative opt-in. - **Trigger:** Installing the package outside CI, when telemetry has not been disabled and the release carries an analytics key. - **Impact:** The analytics service receives the install event and associated runtime and agent metadata. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/telemetry/track.js, dist/telemetry/contract.js, dist/telemetry/gate.js, dist/telemetry/send.js, dist/telemetry/key.js, dist/telemetry/flush.js, dist/cli-picker.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T16:20:13.351Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook records an install event and starts a detached flush process; the telemetry gate defaults to enabled unless a disable condition applies. - **Rationale:** The install hook sends default-enabled installation telemetry to the package’s analytics service before the user sees the install message, which warrants a warning about the lack of affirmative install-time consent. The flagged CLI picker operation only renders hidden labels; unresolved dependency source remains outside this conclusion. - **Files touched:** ~/.graft/telemetry.json, ~/.graft/telemetry-queue.ndjson - **Network endpoints:** https://events.nanonets.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package postinstall hook records an install event and launches a detached flush., Install telemetry runs by default unless a key, DO\_NOT\_TRACK, CI, or saved disabled setting closes the gate., The install event is recorded once per version and includes the global-install flag; common properties include runtime and agent metadata., The flush sends queued events to the configured analytics host., The CLI picker operation at the flagged location only formats a list of hidden labels for display. - **Evidence against:** The recipient is the package’s analytics host, and the telemetry gate honors DO\_NOT\_TRACK, CI, and a saved disabled setting., The inspected install event contract limits its event-specific property to the global-install flag. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @trailhq/trail-code@0.24.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @trailhq/trail-code@0.24.1 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.
