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. Source inspection found that installation only prints setup guidance and does not configure agents or transfer credentials. The bundled client sends tokens to the configured service URL, which defaults to the package's own API. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-17T19:39:45.862Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-17T19:40:21.498Z - **Download time:** 758 ms - **Static scan time:** 2668 ms - **AI review time:** 32209 ms - **Total time:** 35636 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 install hook prints setup instructions, while agent setup and service requests occur through the CLI. - **Trigger:** The postinstall hook runs during installation; its output is limited to global installs. - **Impact:** No confirmed credential theft, covert agent configuration change, or other attack effect was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T19:40:21.498Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** It prints guidance to run the separate setup command. The CLI sends service requests to its configured API URL, defaulting to the package's service. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found that installation only prints setup guidance and does not configure agents or transfer credentials. The bundled client sends tokens to the configured service URL, which defaults to the package's own API. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://api.memgineering.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.mjs after installation., The postinstall script only prints setup guidance for global installs; it does not perform setup., The setup command is a separate CLI command that takes its answers from flags or interactive choices., The API client uses the configured service URL or defaults to api.memgineering.com, and sends bearer tokens to that selected API URL. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to memgineering@0.27.0. - Review the evidence and your use of memgineering@0.27.0 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.
