@xship/cli@0.0.145
Configure Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build and other coding tools for Xship AI with one command
AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source sends runtime usage telemetry by default, with an opt-out but no evident disclosure in the inspected documentation. The observed fields do not establish credential exfiltration, so this warrants a telemetry warning rather than a publish block.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Running the CLI, except help and version requests.
Impact
The package vendor receives install, command, and runtime metadata unless telemetry is disabled.
Mechanism
The CLI records command events and posts usage metadata to its configured gateway; telemetry can be disabled with the package-prefixed TELEMETRY setting.
AI rationale
The source sends runtime usage telemetry by default, with an opt-out but no evident disclosure in the inspected documentation. The observed fields do not establish credential exfiltration, so this warrants a telemetry warning rather than a publish block.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 90.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Runtime telemetry is enabled by default; it can be disabled with the package-prefixed TELEMETRY setting.
- Telemetry events include command, step, status, duration, errors, and optional details; command-start details include only non-key flag names.
- The telemetry payload includes an install ID, CLI version, brand, operating system, OS release, architecture, and Node.js version.
- The CLI starts tracking during command execution and flushes telemetry when execution finishes.
- Telemetry is posted to /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry; the package’s default gateway host is ai.xship.live.
Evidence against
- The telemetry fields inspected are usage and machine metadata; command-start details omit positional values and flags containing “key”.
- Telemetry is sent to the package’s own configured gateway, and an environment setting provides an opt-out.
