Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No concrete attack was identified in the inspected source. The install hook performs bounded dependency replacement, and the flagged helpers support dashboard operation. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-02T23:50:21.828Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-02T23:51:29.804Z - **Download time:** 1018 ms - **Static scan time:** 829 ms - **AI review time:** 66128 ms - **Total time:** 67976 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:** No concrete attack was identified in the inspected source. The install hook performs bounded dependency replacement, and the flagged helpers support dashboard operation. - **Trigger:** Installation activates the dependency patcher; dashboard operation activates configured Pi runners. - **Impact:** No malicious impact was established; clean publication is prevented by the required citation coverage exceeding the output limit. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-02T23:51:29.804Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Inspected behavior uses fixed dependency versions, local PTY helper permission repair, and configured Pi subprocesses. - **Rationale:** Inspected source does not independently justify warning or blocking, and scanner similarity labels do not prove maliciousness. Manual review is required because clean requires citations for nine distinct paths while the schema permits only eight. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** High - **AI review observations:** package.json activates scripts/patch-vulns.mjs after installation., The install helper replaces two fixed nested dependencies using npm with lifecycle scripts disabled., The PTY helper resolves node-pty locally and limits permission repairs to its spawn helpers., The title runner invokes the configured Pi command for model-based title generation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @zhuxixi/pi-agent-board@0.8.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @zhuxixi/pi-agent-board@0.8.0 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.
