WayAI CLI — sync hub configuration between local files and the platform
AI Security Review
scanned 1d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source enables runtime error reporting to Sentry by default and attaches command and account identifiers, while the inspected package provides no disclosure of that collection. Secret masking and an opt-out reduce the risk, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Running the installed CLI initializes Sentry; reportable errors are captured unless WAYAI_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1 is set.
Impact
The vendor’s telemetry collector can associate runtime errors with a command and account identifier; the inspected package source does not disclose this reporting.
Mechanism
The CLI sends Sentry events to its hard-coded collector, with command and runtime tags and a user ID derived from the WayAI token or OAuth subject. The source masks secrets in error text and shortens home-directory paths.
AI rationale
The source enables runtime error reporting to Sentry by default and attaches command and account identifiers, while the inspected package provides no disclosure of that collection. Secret masking and an opt-out reduce the risk, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The CLI initializes Sentry automatically on invocation, unless it is running a background refresh.
- For an installed package, Sentry reporting is enabled by default; the source provides a disable environment variable but no telemetry disclosure in the inspected package.
- Sentry events include the command, Node version, OS platform and architecture, and are sent to the hard-coded Sentry endpoint.
- Sentry associates events with a 16-character hash of a WayAI token or the subject identifier from an OAuth token.
- The Sentry hook masks secrets in error messages and shortens home-directory paths, which limits—but does not remove—the identifying data collected.
Evidence against
- The manifest has no install, preinstall or postinstall lifecycle hook.
- The Sentry endpoint is a Sentry collector, and the CLI’s API credential flows otherwise target WayAI or the relevant service.
- The source masks secrets in reported error messages and hashes WayAI tokens before using them as Sentry user IDs.
