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. Running the CLI starts default telemetry. It sends device and command metadata to PostHog; command arguments or errors could contain sensitive user-provided text. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-12T00:35:47.858Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-12T00:38:13.400Z - **Download time:** 507 ms - **Static scan time:** 6149 ms - **AI review time:** 138885 ms - **Total time:** 145542 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:** Running the CLI starts default telemetry. It sends device and command metadata to PostHog; command arguments or errors could contain sensitive user-provided text. - **Trigger:** A user imports the CLI entrypoint or runs the mastra command. - **Impact:** Device identification and potentially sensitive command or error content can leave the local machine. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/analytics-BRONrmu7.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-12T00:38:13.400Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Default opt-out telemetry captures CLI session and command metadata. - **Rationale:** No source evidence establishes covert credential theft, destructive behavior, or unconsented install-time persistence. Default telemetry includes more than minimal anonymous metrics and can transmit user-controlled command and error content, so it warrants a warning rather than a clean result. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/analytics-BRONrmu7.js - **Network endpoints:** us.posthog.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The CLI creates a PostHog telemetry client when its entrypoint runs., Telemetry is enabled by default and reports a persistent identifier, hostname, operating-system details, command arguments, and error text., The published manifest exposes the telemetry-enabled file as both the import and CLI entrypoint. - **Evidence against:** The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The inspected credential-bearing requests are explicit platform commands using supplied authentication tokens., Agent MCP configuration is offered through interactive prompts, including confirmation for global configuration. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to mastra@1.29.0. - Review the evidence and your use of mastra@1.29.0 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.
