Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 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:** 0.73.0 - **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 inspected agent-related behavior is tied to explicit CLI use and package-aligned workspace setup. Session sharing is gated by interactive confirmation or \`--yes\`; no malicious behavior was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T00:41:41.589Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T00:42:30.539Z - **Download time:** 1027 ms - **Static scan time:** 315 ms - **AI review time:** 47607 ms - **Total time:** 48950 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. Project agent guidance is written during the user-invoked \`vatio init\` setup command. - **Trigger:** A user runs \`vatio init\` in a project directory. - **Impact:** The setup adds project guidance for coding agents. The inspected behavior does not establish an unconsented attack surface. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T00:42:30.539Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The command creates or updates an \`AGENTS.md\` file with Vatio workspace guidance. The skills hint reads agent configuration locations and displays a hint; it does not install or modify agent files. - **Rationale:** The inspected agent-related behavior is tied to explicit CLI use and package-aligned workspace setup. Session sharing is gated by interactive confirmation or \`--yes\`; no malicious behavior was established. - **Files touched:** AGENTS.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines a CLI entry point and has no lifecycle scripts., \`vatio init\` writes a project \`AGENTS.md\` note as part of explicitly invoked workspace setup., The skills hint inspects agent configuration locations; its shown gate suppresses the hint in CI or when disabled., Session sharing requires \`--yes\` or interactive confirmation before sending, and posts to the configured Vatio API base URL. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vatio-ai/cli@0.73.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @vatio-ai/cli@0.73.0 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.
