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 execution, profile editing and download paths belong to tool-management or update workflows rather than hidden install or import-time behavior. Telemetry is disclosed in the wizard, can be disabled, and the inspected payload contains usage events rather than API keys. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T19:18:20.985Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T19:19:23.996Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 659 ms - **AI review time:** 61581 ms - **Total time:** 63011 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, installation and persistence behavior serves the CLI’s configuration and update functions. - **Trigger:** Telemetry runs during CLI commands; tool installation and environment changes are user-requested workflows; self-update runs on eligible global CLI invocations. - **Impact:** No unauthorized credential collection, account action, persistence or other attack behavior was identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T19:19:23.996Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package reports disclosed usage events to its service, can install coding tools when requested, and can update its own global installation from configured registries. - **Rationale:** The flagged execution, profile editing and download paths belong to tool-management or update workflows rather than hidden install or import-time behavior. Telemetry is disclosed in the wizard, can be disabled, and the inspected payload contains usage events rather than API keys. - **Network endpoints:** www.vibeapi.cn, www.vibeapi.si, hk.vibeapi.cn, us13-www.vibeapi.cn, cf.vibeapi.cn, token.nfeyre.top, npm.cnb.cool, registry.npmjs.org, registry.npmmirror.com, cnb.cool ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a CLI entry point and lists build, development and test scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook., The library entry point exports APIs without calling them during import., The wizard discloses that usage statistics containing commands and error messages are sent to VibeAPI and explains how to disable telemetry., Telemetry sends command, status, duration and error fields to the package service; the service request uses the configured base URL., Startup self-updates are limited to global installs, skip npx and selected flags, and announce the update before installing the package from configured registries. - **Evidence against:** Telemetry is enabled by default, though the wizard discloses it and provides an opt-out., A global CLI invocation may automatically install and re-execute a newer release of this package. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vibeapi/api-helper@0.0.145. - Review the evidence and your use of @vibeapi/api-helper@0.0.145 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.
