## 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:** 1.138.0
- **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 opt-in telemetry sends raw command-line arguments, including option values, to Tsuga’s API. Since those values can contain secrets or identifying details and the consent prompt only describes usage data, this is a telemetry risk that warrants a warning.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-04T10:41:34.022Z

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:** Opt-in CLI telemetry sends raw command-line arguments to Tsuga, which may include sensitive option values.

- **Trigger:** A successful CLI run after telemetry consent is saved or granted in the interactive prompt, or a run with TSUGA\_TELEMETRY=1/true.

- **Impact:** Option values containing secrets or identifying details could be disclosed to Tsuga under a broad usage-data consent prompt.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T10:43:05.492Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI adds the parsed command and up to 32 raw arguments beginning with the first flag to a usage payload, then posts it to the Tsuga API.

- **Rationale:** The CLI’s opt-in telemetry sends raw command-line arguments, including option values, to Tsuga’s API. Since those values can contain secrets or identifying details and the consent prompt only describes usage data, this is a telemetry risk that warrants a warning.

- **Files touched:** ~/.config/tsuga/config.json

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Opt-in run telemetry includes the parsed command and up to 32 raw arguments starting at the first flag, including option values; the payload is serialized and sent in a background POST., Telemetry is gated by a saved consent choice, an interactive prompt after a successful run, or the explicit TSUGA\_TELEMETRY=1/true setting., The telemetry endpoint is /v1/cli-runs on the Tsuga API hosts.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest has no install lifecycle scripts; the telemetry runs as part of invoking the CLI., The prompt asks whether to send usage data, and users can later turn telemetry off., The default destination is Tsuga’s own API, with configured API hosts restricted by source checks.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @tsuga/cli@1.138.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of @tsuga/cli@1.138.0 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.
