AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe install hook is a disclosed, package-aligned telemetry invocation with a static configuration rather than a payload, persistence, or foreign control-surface mutation. Scanner hits in documentation assets do not establish malicious package behavior.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
npm installation
Impact
Configured telemetry metrics may be sent; no malicious behavior is established.
Mechanism
disclosed IBM telemetry postinstall configuration

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 95.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json defines postinstall: ibmtelemetry --config=telemetry.yml.
- telemetry.yml names an IBM metrics endpoint.
Evidence against
- telemetry.yml limits collection to npm dependency metadata; JS functions and tokens are null.
- README.md discloses IBM Telemetry and an opt-out path.
- No non-doc runtime bundle matched process/env, child-process, network, eval, dynamic-import, or WebSocket primitives.
- Entrypoints are Angular component ESM bundles; no package-owned installer code or binaries are shipped.
