Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package’s purpose and user-triggered setup behavior appear legitimate, but default-on telemetry includes selected command-line flags that are not among the documented fields. This is a runtime privacy concern, so the version warrants a warning rather than a publish block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T12:07:45.167Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T12:08:40.060Z - **Download time:** 1280 ms - **Static scan time:** 822 ms - **AI review time:** 52790 ms - **Total time:** 54893 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:** Default-on runtime telemetry includes selected command-line flags beyond the fields described in the source documentation. - **Trigger:** Running a CLI command; telemetry events are queued and sent during normal command execution. - **Impact:** The gateway receives command and step metadata, including selected flags that may contain identifying values such as a custom base URL. - **Evidence paths:** dist/lib/telemetry.js, dist/lib/command.js, dist/lib/telemetry.d.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T12:08:40.060Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI records command metadata and posts event batches to the configured gateway. The default gateway is https://www.vibeapi.cn; users can disable telemetry with VIBECLI\_TELEMETRY=0. - **Rationale:** The package’s purpose and user-triggered setup behavior appear legitimate, but default-on telemetry includes selected command-line flags that are not among the documented fields. This is a runtime privacy concern, so the version warrants a warning rather than a publish block. - **Network endpoints:** https://www.vibeapi.cn/api/platform/vibecode/telemetry, Configured gateway host: /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Telemetry is enabled by default; it can be disabled with the VIBECLI\_TELEMETRY environment variable., Each CLI invocation records a command event containing selected raw command-line flags, which are not listed among the documented telemetry fields., The CLI batches telemetry events to the configured gateway at /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no install, preinstall, or postinstall scripts., Telemetry is sent to the configured gateway, and the source documents an opt-out and describes the event fields., The flagged desktop setup, persistence, and tool installation functions are reached through user-invoked CLI operations. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vibeapi/cli@0.0.155. - Review the evidence and your use of @vibeapi/cli@0.0.155 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.
