The default download path is Windows-only unless an environment override forces it on another platform; no checksum or signature validation is present. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-14T02:57:21.602Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-14T02:59:49.916Z - **Download time:** 2261 ms - **Static scan time:** 4855 ms - **AI review time:** 141196 ms - **Total time:** 148314 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** On first interactive use, the CLI may download, persist, chmod, and launch a native pager executable. The default download path is Windows-only unless an environment override forces it on another platform; no checksum or signature validation is present. - **Trigger:** Interactive CLI startup requiring a pager binary - **Impact:** A compromised or replaced download endpoint could yield arbitrary code execution as the CLI user. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-pager.mjs, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-14T02:59:49.916Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote native executable download followed by child-process launch - **Rationale:** Source inspection found a real unverified remote-native execution path, warranting a warning. It did not establish intentional credential theft, stealth persistence, destructive behavior, or an install-time malicious chain. - **Files touched:** dist/cli.js, scripts/postinstall-pager.mjs, dist/native, $HOME/.clavue/native - **Network endpoints:** https://www.clavue.com/downloads/native ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Runtime can download a native pager executable from a remote URL., Downloaded native bytes are saved and chmodded executable without an integrity check., The resolved pager binary is launched as a child process. - **Evidence against:** npm postinstall only chmods package-local pager files; it does not fetch or modify agent configuration., Remote download is runtime-gated: default only on Windows when no bundled pager exists., No confirmed credential exfiltration, destructive action, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
