## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 13 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:** 0.114.0
- **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 suspicious scanner hints do not establish credential redirection or command-output exfiltration in the reviewed source. The CLI's runtime analytics is disclosed, uses the Tray service, and has a DO\_NOT\_TRACK opt-out; its shell invocation is gated by user confirmation.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T12:50:15.693Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-31T12:50:54.717Z
- **Download time:** 251 ms
- **Static scan time:** 339 ms
- **AI review time:** 38434 ms
- **Total time:** 39024 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 performs disclosed, opt-out runtime analytics and normal Helix project operations.

- **Trigger:** Analytics may be sent after the init, login, dev, or deploy command when the user is logged in, unless DO\_NOT\_TRACK is enabled.

- **Impact:** The reviewed behavior supports the CLI's disclosed analytics and project-management purpose; no unrelated credential collection or command-output transfer was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:50:54.717Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI posts command outcome and runtime/project metadata to its Helix analytics endpoint using the user's Tray access token. Project deployment and local development actions are command-driven.

- **Rationale:** The suspicious scanner hints do not establish credential redirection or command-output exfiltration in the reviewed source. The CLI's runtime analytics is disclosed, uses the Tray service, and has a DO\_NOT\_TRACK opt-out; its shell invocation is gated by user confirmation.

- **Network endpoints:** Tray environment profile host for the Helix analytics endpoint (private/v1/helix/analytics)

### 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 exports a CLI entry point and a small library entry point; there are no install lifecycle scripts., The changelog discloses usage analytics for init, login, dev, and deploy, sent only when logged in, and says it excludes source code, command arguments, paths, and credentials., Analytics uses a DO\_NOT\_TRACK opt-out and sends event, runtime, locale, timezone, workspace, project ID, and project name fields to the Helix analytics endpoint using the Tray access token., The shell invocation is guarded by an interactive confirmation before installing a version-matched @trayai/helix-sdk.

- **Evidence against:** No credential redirection to an unrelated host or command-output exfiltration was identified in the reviewed CLI paths., No install-time behavior or reviewer-directed manipulation was identified.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @trayai/helix-cli@0.114.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of @trayai/helix-cli@0.114.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
