AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiNo concrete malicious install hook, credential theft path, or stealth persistence was found in inspected source. Downgrade to a warning because telemetry and remote migration content are real capabilities and bundled opaque artifacts prevent a decisive clean result.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Running a CLI command that captures telemetry, or explicitly running the dev-portal migration command.
Impact
A persistent device identifier and command metadata may reach PostHog; migration can introduce remote template content into the selected project.
Mechanism
Command-scoped telemetry and migration-time network downloads.
AI rationale
No concrete malicious install hook, credential theft path, or stealth persistence was found in inspected source. Downgrade to a warning because telemetry and remote migration content are real capabilities and bundled opaque artifacts prevent a decisive clean result.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 74.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The CLI sends telemetry with a machine-derived identifier and command properties to PostHog unless the user sets the do-not-track environment variable.
- The explicit dev-portal migration command downloads template metadata and writes project files.
- Large bundled minified dependencies and a bundled ZIP fixture prevent complete source-level coverage of all scanner findings.
Evidence against
- package.json defines no preinstall, install, postinstall, or other lifecycle script.
- The executable only imports the CLI; inspected file, process, and network actions are reached through named CLI commands.
- The migration's network requests and writes are part of an explicitly invoked migration flow.
- No inspected source showed credential harvesting, install-time execution, stealth persistence, or reviewer-directed text.
