@xship/cli@0.0.146
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 CLI enables runtime telemetry by default and can send error text along with command events; the reviewed sources do not disclose this collection. This is a warning-level telemetry concern, with no evidence of credential theft or another attack.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Running the CLI and reaching a telemetry-tracked command or step.
Impact
Command and step metadata, runtime details, and potentially error messages are disclosed to the service.
Mechanism
It batches command events and may include error text, then posts them to the package service endpoint. TELEMETRY=0, false, or off disables telemetry.
AI rationale
The CLI enables runtime telemetry by default and can send error text along with command events; the reviewed sources do not disclose this collection. This is a warning-level telemetry concern, with no evidence of credential theft or another attack.
Evidence
dist/lib/telemetry.jsdist/cli.js
Network endpoints1
/api/platform/vibecode/telemetry (resolved against the configured gateway base URL)
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 84.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Runtime telemetry is enabled unless TELEMETRY is set to 0, false, or off.
- Telemetry events may include error messages, masked for home paths and common token patterns.
- Telemetry posts event batches to /api/platform/vibecode/telemetry and includes package, OS, architecture, and runtime fields.
- The CLI entry point executes commands and then checks whether telemetry remains pending.
Evidence against
- The package is a CLI for configuring coding tools, and the reviewed shell and process execution support tool installation and configuration.
- No install lifecycle scripts are declared in package.json.
- The inspected telemetry code does not show collection of credentials or file contents.
