## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 13 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 0.0.141
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The CLI sends runtime telemetry by default, but its README does not disclose telemetry or explain how to disable it. The collected fields are limited to usage and machine metadata in the inspected flow, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T03:33:40.964Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-31T03:34:08.752Z
- **Download time:** 520 ms
- **Static scan time:** 646 ms
- **AI review time:** 26621 ms
- **Total time:** 27788 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:** Undisclosed runtime telemetry reports command and environment metadata to the configured Xship service.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI; queued telemetry is flushed at command completion.

- **Impact:** The service receives usage and machine metadata without documented runtime telemetry disclosure; no theft of unrelated credentials or file contents was identified.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/lib/telemetry.js, dist/lib/command.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T03:34:08.752Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Telemetry is enabled unless disabled by an environment setting. It sends install, platform, runtime, command, event, and sanitized error fields to the telemetry endpoint.

- **Rationale:** The CLI sends runtime telemetry by default, but its README does not disclose telemetry or explain how to disable it. The collected fields are limited to usage and machine metadata in the inspected flow, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

- **Network endpoints:** /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry (relative to the configured Xship base URL)

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Runtime telemetry is enabled by default and can be disabled with a telemetry environment setting., Each CLI command flushes queued telemetry when it finishes., Telemetry includes an install ID, platform and runtime details, command and event fields, and sanitized error text; it is POSTed to the configured service base URL.

- **Evidence against:** The telemetry request goes to the configured Xship service endpoint and uses the configured Xship API key., The inspected telemetry payload does not show collection of other services’ credentials or file contents.

## Affected versions and remediation
