## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 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:** 0.109.0
- **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 source supports the CLI's stated Helix purpose, and its analytics are documented, limited to runtime/project metadata, and sent to the configured Tray API. The scanner's apparent credential and command-output leads resolve to normal Tray API use and project deployment behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T12:50:15.031Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-31T12:50:44.286Z
- **Download time:** 1028 ms
- **Static scan time:** 223 ms
- **AI review time:** 28003 ms
- **Total time:** 29255 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 reviewed network activity supports disclosed CLI analytics and user-requested Tray operations.

- **Trigger:** Analytics runs after the init, login, dev, or deploy command when the user is logged in; DO\_NOT\_TRACK disables it.

- **Impact:** The disclosed analytics reports usage metadata; no credential theft, unrelated collection, or unauthorized account action was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:50:44.286Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Sends command outcome and runtime/project metadata to the configured Tray API analytics route using the Tray access token.

- **Rationale:** The source supports the CLI's stated Helix purpose, and its analytics are documented, limited to runtime/project metadata, and sent to the configured Tray API. The scanner's apparent credential and command-output leads resolve to normal Tray API use and project deployment behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes a CLI and an import entry point; no install lifecycle scripts are declared., The changelog discloses usage analytics for init, login, dev, and deploy, and says it excludes source code, command arguments, file paths, and credentials., Analytics can be disabled with DO\_NOT\_TRACK and sends to the Tray API profile endpoint using the user's Tray login.
