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 update path installs a globally named package that differs from the manifest and uses sudo on non-Windows systems; source inspection does not establish whether this is intentional. The configured API-key transfer is part of a chat request to its configured or protocol-default AI endpoint, and the inspected account-action paths do not show a separate automatic account action. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-27T21:05:27.351Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-27T21:13:54.420Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 197 ms - **AI review time:** 506351 ms - **Total time:** 507069 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:** The CLI may install a globally named package that differs from its own package name during its update flow. This creates an unresolved package identity risk, but the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior. - **Trigger:** A CLI command's child process exits successfully and the update check finds a newer version. - **Impact:** The update flow could install code from a package other than coda-cli. - **Evidence paths:** bin/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-27T21:13:54.420Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI invokes a global npm install of code-cli, adding sudo on non-Windows systems. - **Rationale:** The update path installs a globally named package that differs from the manifest and uses sudo on non-Windows systems; source inspection does not establish whether this is intentional. The configured API-key transfer is part of a chat request to its configured or protocol-default AI endpoint, and the inspected account-action paths do not show a separate automatic account action. - **Files touched:** bin/index.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest identifies coda-cli@1.0.18 and exposes bin/index.js as the coda command, with no install lifecycle hook., After a successful child command exits, the CLI checks for an update; when one is found, it runs a global install of code-cli, using sudo on non-Windows systems., The chat client sends its configured API key as a bearer token to the endpoint selected from its configured base URL or protocol defaults., The inspected CLI account-action locations are part of command argument handling and successful child-command completion; they do not establish a separate automatic account action. - **Evidence against:** The package manifest lists only build and typecheck scripts, and the package's network request is an AI chat request to the configured or protocol-default endpoint., The source does not establish whether installing code-cli is an intended rename or a package-name error. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to coda-cli@1.0.18. - Review the evidence and your use of coda-cli@1.0.18 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.
