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 flagged credential flow is npm registry authentication and matches credentials only to the requested registry host. Network and process execution serve the CLI’s stated package and Git workflows; the healthcheck code uses explicitly supplied CI settings and a token in generated script content, with no evidence it runs during installation or import. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T11:38:53.526Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T11:39:26.193Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 3936 ms - **AI review time:** 28221 ms - **Total time:** 32667 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; the package provides a CLI and toolchain with expected registry, Git, and update functionality. - **Trigger:** CLI invocation; package import routes to the library entry point. The pipeline healthcheck content is generated for explicit project setup and requires running the generated script. - **Impact:** No malicious impact identified from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T11:39:26.193Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI resolves npm authorization against the requested registry host and performs ordinary package and Git operations. No automatic credential exfiltration or unrelated execution was established. - **Rationale:** The flagged credential flow is npm registry authentication and matches credentials only to the requested registry host. Network and process execution serve the CLI’s stated package and Git workflows; the healthcheck code uses explicitly supplied CI settings and a token in generated script content, with no evidence it runs during installation or import. - **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org, git.iec.io, CI\_API\_V4\_URL (environment-configured) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package identifies itself as a CLI and exposes a bin entry; no install lifecycle hook is declared., The CLI wrapper imports the bundled command-line entry point when present., npm auth candidates are restricted to the host of the requested registry URL., The auto-update worker is gated by CLI state and configuration checks., The healthcheck trigger source is documented as a token validation operation without writes. - **Evidence against:** The CLI bundle uses network access and child-process execution for package, Git, and update workflows., The bundle contains a GitLab pipeline healthcheck that sends a token supplied through MANO\_REGISTRY\_TRIGGER\_TOKEN to the configured CI\_API\_V4\_URL when that generated script is run. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to mano-coding@0.1.59. - Review the evidence and your use of mano-coding@0.1.59 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.
