Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed. - **Verdict:** Clean - **Product-default install policy:** Allow - **Firewall policy:** No policy match - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** None published - **Selected version:** 0.128.0 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 flagged agent-instruction write is performed by the explicit \`vatio init\` command. Runtime telemetry is disclosed and has an opt-out; credentialed requests use the configured Vatio API, and sharing a session requires consent. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T13:56:53.197Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T13:57:37.413Z - **Download time:** 511 ms - **Static scan time:** 586 ms - **AI review time:** 43118 ms - **Total time:** 44216 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 identified; observed network and file operations support the CLI’s workspace, update, and disclosed telemetry features. - **Trigger:** Normal CLI commands; AGENTS.md setup occurs only when the user runs \`vatio init\`. - **Impact:** No malicious impact identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T13:57:37.413Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Commands use the configured Vatio API; runtime usage reports can be disabled, and transcript sharing asks for consent or requires --yes. - **Rationale:** The flagged agent-instruction write is performed by the explicit \`vatio init\` command. Runtime telemetry is disclosed and has an opt-out; credentialed requests use the configured Vatio API, and sharing a session requires consent. - **Files touched:** AGENTS.md, ~/.vatio/telemetry-notice, ~/.vatio/sessions.json, ~/.vatio/skills-hint.json, ~/.vatio/skills-check.json, ~/.vatio/update-check.json - **Network endpoints:** https://vatio.ai, https://registry.npmjs.org/@vatio-ai/cli/latest, https://registry.npmjs.org/@vatio-ai/skills/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The AI-agent instruction file is written only by the explicit \`vatio init\` command., Runtime usage reporting is disclosed and can be disabled with VATIO\_TELEMETRY=0 or DO\_NOT\_TRACK=1., Usage reports send command, exit status, duration, installed skill version and error details to the configured Vatio API., Session sharing requires confirmation or an explicit --yes flag; noninteractive runs stop without sending. - **Evidence against:** The CLI makes network requests to Vatio and the npm registry during normal commands., The explicit init command may append a Vatio section to AGENTS.md. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vatio-ai/cli@0.128.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @vatio-ai/cli@0.128.0 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.
