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 inspection found no npm install lifecycle hook or concrete attack behavior. Agent guidance is created by the explicit init command, while saved-token requests use the configured service and transcript sharing requires affirmative user action. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-25T23:12:42.287Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-25T23:14:54.559Z - **Download time:** 1008 ms - **Static scan time:** 524 ms - **AI review time:** 130739 ms - **Total time:** 132272 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. The flagged project guidance is written only by the explicit init command; other credential transfers are tied to ordinary CLI actions and the configured service. - **Trigger:** A user invokes the CLI, including \`vatio init\` or \`vatio share-session\`. - **Impact:** The observed effects are normal workspace setup and service operations; no install-time mutation or hidden credential transfer was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-25T23:14:54.559Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Initialization writes a project note; transcript sharing asks for confirmation or requires explicit \`--yes\`, then sends to the configured service. Other authenticated requests use the configured service URL. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found no npm install lifecycle hook or concrete attack behavior. Agent guidance is created by the explicit init command, while saved-token requests use the configured service and transcript sharing requires affirmative user action. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes a CLI entry point and declares yaml as its dependency; no package install hook is present., The user-invoked init command creates the workspace note; it leaves an existing Vatio section alone., Saved-token requests use the configured service URL. Session sharing requires confirmation or explicit --yes before sending a transcript., The skills hint is reached from a CLI command and checks the skills package version., The inspected dependency and utility paths implement YAML parsing, composition, and stringifying, plus ordinary CLI configuration and workspace functions; no install-triggered attack chain was identified., The CLI announces its command telemetry before sending it, and the telemetry endpoint follows the configured service URL. - **Evidence against:** The init command writes coding-agent guidance into a project AGENTS.md, but only when the user explicitly runs init., The CLI can send session transcripts after confirmation and routine command telemetry during normal CLI use. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vatio-ai/cli@0.104.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @vatio-ai/cli@0.104.0 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.
