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 hits resolve to expected cloud-agent hook setup and user-invoked update behavior. The package has no install hook, and the reviewed hook endpoint is loopback rather than an unrelated collector. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T02:29:41.158Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T02:30:35.027Z - **Download time:** 514 ms - **Static scan time:** 1489 ms - **AI review time:** 51865 ms - **Total time:** 53869 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; reviewed network and process behavior supports the CLI’s explicit cloud-agent and update features. - **Trigger:** The Claude hooks are installed during an explicit \`adit cloud claude\` session; self-update runs only when the upgrade command is invoked. - **Impact:** No unauthorized credential collection, unrelated data transfer, or concealed automatic action was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T02:30:35.027Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The Claude status-line hook posts limited session metadata to a temporary loopback server. Cloud credentials are used for the configured ADIT cloud service after login. - **Rationale:** The suspicious scanner hits resolve to expected cloud-agent hook setup and user-invoked update behavior. The package has no install hook, and the reviewed hook endpoint is loopback rather than an unrelated collector. - **Files touched:** .claude/adit-cloud-\.settings.local.json, ~/.adit/cloud-credentials.json - **Network endpoints:** http://127.0.0.1:\/hook ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest declares only build and typecheck scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook., The cloud Claude command requires an initialized project and saved cloud credentials before starting., That command creates a loopback hook server and writes a session-specific settings file that points to it., The status-line hook sends model, effort, session, transcript-path, and working-directory metadata to the loopback endpoint., Cloud login is an explicit command, saves credentials locally, and calls an upload disclosure. - **Evidence against:** The flagged shell execution is in the explicit self-update command, which runs package-manager installation as part of upgrading ADIT., The Codex resume watcher reads local Codex databases to detect a resume event; no outbound transfer is shown in that path. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @varveai/adit-cli@1.0.9. - Review the evidence and your use of @varveai/adit-cli@1.0.9 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.
