The package is a static-analysis library with an explicit CLI that reads target source and can write requested report files. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-29T11:21:03.918Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-29T11:22:05.868Z - **Download time:** 506 ms - **Static scan time:** 7186 ms - **AI review time:** 54257 ms - **Total time:** 61950 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface was established. The package is a static-analysis library with an explicit CLI that reads target source and can write requested report files. - **Trigger:** A user explicitly runs the effect-analyze CLI or imports its analysis API. - **Impact:** No automatic install-time execution, credential collection, network exfiltration, or persistence was found. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/cli.js, dist/rules.js, dist/migration.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-29T11:22:05.868Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Static TypeScript analysis and optional report generation. - **Rationale:** Direct inspection shows that the scanner findings are largely matches in lint rules, documentation examples, and explicit CLI features. There is no lifecycle trigger or concrete malicious behavior. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, postinstall, or prepare hook and does not depend on itself., The exposed CLI performs user-invoked static analysis and writes requested analysis reports., The apparent fetch, credential, environment, and child-process matches are analyzer rules, examples, or explicit developer tooling rather than package exfiltration., No fixed credential gateway, remote payload loader, persistence routine, or reviewer-directed manipulation was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
