Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked) - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Telemetry - **Selected version:** 0.0.4-beta - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package’s documented runtime capture is core to its purpose and is enabled through an explicit setup command. However, its events also include the machine hostname, which the README does not disclose, so the telemetry merits a warning. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T10:39:11.058Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T10:40:02.756Z - **Download time:** 516 ms - **Static scan time:** 328 ms - **AI review time:** 50854 ms - **Total time:** 51698 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:** Runtime telemetry uploads prompts and event metadata, including an undisclosed machine hostname. - **Trigger:** After a user runs \`arcroom init\`, configured agent hooks record events during sessions and the daemon uploads them. - **Impact:** The API receives a machine identifier and workspace path that the README does not disclose, creating a limited privacy risk. - **Evidence paths:** README.md, dist/events.js, dist/daemon.js, dist/home.js, dist/init.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T10:40:02.756Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Events include hostname and working directory; queued events are sent to the ArcRoom ingest API. - **Rationale:** The package’s documented runtime capture is core to its purpose and is enabled through an explicit setup command. However, its events also include the machine hostname, which the README does not disclose, so the telemetry merits a warning. - **Files touched:** ~/.arcroom/spool.jsonl, ~/.arcroom/sent/ - **Network endpoints:** https://api.arcroomai.com/v1/ingest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Each recorded event includes the machine hostname and current working directory., A user prompt is added to the event payload., The daemon uploads queued events to ArcRoom’s ingest API., The README discloses prompts, paths, and other recorded fields, but does not mention hostname collection., The hooks are configured by running the explicit \`arcroom init\` command. - **Evidence against:** The only lifecycle script is \`prepublishOnly\`, which builds and tests; there is no install hook., The README describes the runtime collection, secret redaction, and \`arcroom off\` control., The README says file contents, tool output, and edit diffs are not sent., The credential is sent to the package’s own ArcRoom API. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to arcroom@0.0.4-beta. - Review the evidence and your use of arcroom@0.0.4-beta 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.
