Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The inspected manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the reviewed launchers and required bundle entrypoints show normal SDK and CLI behavior. No concrete malicious behavior was identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-28T00:07:25.831Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-28T00:09:33.213Z - **Download time:** 1782 ms - **Static scan time:** 58980 ms - **AI review time:** 66618 ms - **Total time:** 127382 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

No concrete malicious behavior was identified. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes build and checking scripts; inspection found no install lifecycle hook., The development launcher runs the local CLI only when invoked., The inspected ESM, CommonJS, server, and CLI bundles construct SDK version headers., The bootstrap logger sanitizes CLI arguments before logging. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @xylex-group/athena@5.6.7. - Review the evidence and your use of @xylex-group/athena@5.6.7 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
