Vatio CLI — deploy and manage Vatio agent workspaces
AI Security Review
scanned 10d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged agent-file write occurs through explicit `vatio init`. The inspected telemetry is opt-out and reports command metadata through the configured service; no concrete malicious behavior was established.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
The AGENTS.md note is written when a user runs `vatio init`; the skills hint runs from improve commands.
Impact
No unconsented install-time mutation or other attack effect was identified.
Mechanism
Initialization writes a Vatio guidance note to the project AGENTS.md. The skills hint reads installed skill metadata and updates its own cache.
AI rationale
The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the flagged agent-file write occurs through explicit `vatio init`. The inspected telemetry is opt-out and reports command metadata through the configured service; no concrete malicious behavior was established.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 93.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json declares the CLI entrypoint and YAML dependency, with no lifecycle scripts.
- The AGENTS.md note is written during the explicit `vatio init` command; the skills hint checks installed versions and caches its display state.
- The required YAML dependency files implement parsing, composition, and stringification; its manifest has no install scripts.
- Telemetry is disabled by supported environment settings and otherwise reports command metadata and errors through the configured Vatio service.
- The required CLI source paths identify command modules and local configuration handling; no attack behavior was found in the inspected paths.
