Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The inspected source shows a Mastra project scaffolding CLI without an install lifecycle hook. Its observed telemetry sends limited command-option fields to a configured analytics host, and the dependency aligns with the package's stated Mastra purpose. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-07T15:00:20.844Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-07T15:01:08.495Z - **Download time:** 507 ms - **Static scan time:** 35 ms - **AI review time:** 47109 ms - **Total time:** 47651 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:** No attack was identified in the inspected manifest and CLI source. The observed network activity is CLI telemetry with limited command-option fields. - **Trigger:** A user invokes the create-factory CLI. - **Impact:** No malicious effect was established from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-07T15:01:08.495Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI records selected command options through telemetry configured for us.posthog.com. - **Rationale:** The inspected source shows a Mastra project scaffolding CLI without an install lifecycle hook. Its observed telemetry sends limited command-option fields to a configured analytics host, and the dependency aligns with the package's stated Mastra purpose. - **Network endpoints:** https://us.posthog.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json declares the Mastra runtime dependency at version 1.30.0, consistent with this Mastra project creator., The manifest lists build, check, test, and lint scripts; it has no install lifecycle script., The built CLI defines project creation as a command action, with the Mastra Factory template as its default., CLI telemetry sends command options limited to template choice, platform setting, organization presence, and region., Telemetry is configured for us.posthog.com. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to create-factory@0.1.18. - Review the evidence and your use of create-factory@0.1.18 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.
