# @tsuga/cli@1.137.0 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 24 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 1.137.0
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The CLI’s telemetry gate requires saved consent, an explicit environment override, or an interactive prompt, but the submitted record includes raw flag values. Because the usage-data disclosure does not explain this collection, classify it as suspicious telemetry rather than malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-04T08:50:19.915Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-04T08:51:53.587Z
- **Download time:** 518 ms
- **Static scan time:** 2346 ms
- **AI review time:** 90807 ms
- **Total time:** 93672 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:** Usage telemetry can include raw command-line flag values, which may contain sensitive data.

- **Trigger:** A CLI command runs when telemetry is enabled by saved consent or TSUGA\_TELEMETRY; on the first successful interactive command, the CLI asks whether to send usage data.

- **Impact:** Tsuga’s API may receive private query values or credentials supplied as flag values, beyond what the usage-data prompt describes.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T08:51:53.587Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI gathers up to 32 arguments from the first flag onward, including their values, then sends the run record in a detached process to Tsuga’s CLI-runs API.

- **Rationale:** The CLI’s telemetry gate requires saved consent, an explicit environment override, or an interactive prompt, but the submitted record includes raw flag values. Because the usage-data disclosure does not explain this collection, classify it as suspicious telemetry rather than malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** ~/.config/tsuga/config.json, $XDG\_CONFIG\_HOME/tsuga/config.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.tsuga.com/v1/cli-runs

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The CLI records up to 32 raw arguments from the first flag onward, and its telemetry schema specifies that these include argument values., After the telemetry gate allows reporting, the CLI serializes the run record and starts a detached Node process to send it., The reporter POSTs the serialized record to the Tsuga CLI-runs endpoint., The prompt and README describe the collection as “usage data” but do not disclose that flag values are sent.

- **Evidence against:** There are no lifecycle scripts; telemetry runs as part of a CLI command., The CLI asks for consent on the first successful interactive command, saves the answer, and supports turning telemetry off; an environment variable can override the saved setting., The endpoint is on Tsuga’s own API host, and the reported fields also include ordinary command, runtime, and platform usage data.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @tsuga/cli@1.137.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of @tsuga/cli@1.137.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
