@withfudge/design@2.0.8
Installer and agent guidance for the hosted Fudge design-corpus MCP server.
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package sends default runtime telemetry from explicit CLI commands without consistently disclosing it at the point of collection. The events are coarse and go to the package’s own API, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user runs the login, setup, or doctor command while telemetry is enabled; telemetry is enabled by default outside CI.
Impact
The package reports coarse product usage associated with the authenticated Fudge session; this is an undisclosed runtime telemetry risk.
Mechanism
The CLI sends event data to the Fudge API’s analytics endpoint and includes the Fudge session token in the request headers.
AI rationale
The package sends default runtime telemetry from explicit CLI commands without consistently disclosing it at the point of collection. The events are coarse and go to the package’s own API, 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
- Runtime telemetry is enabled by default for ordinary non-CI use unless disabled by a saved preference or environment setting.
- The login, setup, and doctor commands send telemetry automatically after those commands run.
- Telemetry requests go to the Fudge API and include the Fudge session token plus coarse event, version, platform, and runtime fields.
- The CLI offers telemetry status and disable controls, but login and doctor do not show the user telemetry details when sending events.
Evidence against
- Telemetry events contain coarse product events and runtime fields; the source says they exclude CozoScript, parameters, and result content.
- The telemetry endpoint is part of the package’s own Fudge API, and the CLI provides disable controls.
- Workspace token creation and npm installation occur through explicit workspace commands, not automatically on install or import.
- The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle hook.
