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 launcher checks for a coda-cli update but installs the differently named code-agent package globally, including through a sudo command on non-Windows systems. This creates an unresolved package substitution risk, so the package warrants a warning rather than a publish block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-24T06:59:34.204Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-24T07:00:59.459Z - **Download time:** 517 ms - **Static scan time:** 262 ms - **AI review time:** 84475 ms - **Total time:** 85255 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:** A successful CLI command can trigger an update check for coda-cli that launches a global install of the differently named code-agent package. This leaves a package substitution risk, though the installer is opened visibly in a terminal. - **Trigger:** Run a valid CLI command that exits successfully when the registry reports a newer coda-cli version. - **Impact:** The install could add or replace globally installed package code and its commands; on non-Windows systems it requires the user to enter a sudo password. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-24T07:00:59.459Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The launcher checks registry version metadata, then starts npm install -g code-agent in a detached terminal; on non-Windows systems it prefixes the command with sudo. - **Rationale:** The launcher checks for a coda-cli update but installs the differently named code-agent package globally, including through a sudo command on non-Windows systems. This creates an unresolved package substitution risk, so the package warrants a warning rather than a publish block. - **Files touched:** package.json, bin/index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest identifies coda-cli@1.0.8 and maps the coda command to bin/index.js., The launcher checks registry version information for coda-cli against its installed version., When an update is available, the launcher starts a global npm install of code-agent; the non-Windows command uses sudo., The update path runs after a CLI child process exits successfully and launches through a detached shell in a terminal., The install target differs from the package whose registry version triggered the update. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook; the update path is reached through CLI command handling., The installer is visibly launched in a terminal, and on non-Windows systems it requests a sudo password. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to coda-cli@1.0.8. - Review the evidence and your use of coda-cli@1.0.8 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.
