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. Source review found no malicious behavior. The flagged agent note is written by an explicit setup command, and the inspected network and account actions are package-aligned CLI functions. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-25T16:57:58.347Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-25T17:00:02.644Z - **Download time:** 779 ms - **Static scan time:** 468 ms - **AI review time:** 123049 ms - **Total time:** 124297 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 malicious attack surface was identified in the inspected sources. The flagged project guidance is written only during user-run workspace initialization. - **Trigger:** A user runs vatio init, vatio auth --new-key, or vatio share-session; the package manifest defines no install hook. - **Impact:** These actions support normal CLI setup and account use; no unrequested agent control change or credential theft was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-25T17:00:02.644Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Initialization adds an AGENTS.md note; key generation uses local openssl; session sharing requires confirmation or --yes. - **Rationale:** Source review found no malicious behavior. The flagged agent note is written by an explicit setup command, and the inspected network and account actions are package-aligned CLI functions. - **Files touched:** AGENTS.md, identity.pem, identity.pub, .gitignore, skills-hint.json, skills-check.json - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/@vatio-ai/skills/latest, https://registry.npmjs.org/@vatio-ai/cli/latest, https://vatio.ai ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a user-run CLI and declares yaml as its only dependency; it has no npm lifecycle hook., The AGENTS.md write occurs during vatio init, and existing Vatio notes are left alone., Skills hints run from improvement commands, can be disabled, and perform a version lookup plus local state writes., Enabled routine telemetry sends command results to the configured Vatio API; environment settings can disable it., Transcript sharing stops for confirmation unless --yes is given, then requires authorization before sending., Key generation and secret administration are command-triggered product operations; new key generation requires --new-key and uses local openssl. - **Evidence against:** The flagged agent-configuration write is reached through vatio init, not package installation., The YAML dependency manifest has no install script, and the parent manifest has no lifecycle hook., The updater runs a version-pinned release of the same CLI after an API reports that the current CLI is outdated. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vatio-ai/cli@0.102.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @vatio-ai/cli@0.102.0 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.
