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. There are no npm lifecycle hooks, and the entrypoints only start a UiPath agent CLI after the user invokes it. Process spawning and cloud authentication are package-aligned CLI behavior, not a hidden install attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-26T03:14:19.202Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-26T03:15:22.582Z - **Download time:** 505 ms - **Static scan time:** 13179 ms - **AI review time:** 49695 ms - **Total time:** 63380 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 install-time or import-time attack was identified. The package is a user-invoked UiPath agent CLI that talks to the operator's UiPath cloud host and stores auth under a local .uipath directory. - **Trigger:** The user runs the agent-tool binary or imports the CLI module and parses process.argv. - **Impact:** No unconsented control-surface write, credential theft, or remote payload execution was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-26T03:15:22.582Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Command handlers register agent project operations and optional UiPath authentication against the configured https base URL. - **Rationale:** There are no npm lifecycle hooks, and the entrypoints only start a UiPath agent CLI after the user invokes it. Process spawning and cloud authentication are package-aligned CLI behavior, not a hidden install attack. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json version 1.202.0 has no install lifecycle scripts; main, exports, and bin point at dist CLI modules that run only when the user invokes the agent-tool command., Bundled command registration describes a UiPath low-code agent CLI with prefix agent; auth defaults to https://cloud.uipath.com and a local .uipath profile., child\_process imports in dist/index-h8cph72k.js come from the bundled open/wsl helper libraries, not an install-time payload. - **Evidence against:** Compiled bundles include child\_process, new Function in schema validation, and UiPath session environment variables used when the CLI authenticates to the configured cloud host. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @uipath/agent-tool@1.202.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @uipath/agent-tool@1.202.0 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
