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. The package’s model and MCP traffic matches its coding-agent purpose, but its CLI also sends runtime telemetry by default. The telemetry is limited to usage and resource metrics in the inspected code, making this an undisclosed telemetry concern rather than clear malicious data theft. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T11:49:58.590Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T11:51:15.303Z - **Download time:** 1017 ms - **Static scan time:** 251 ms - **AI review time:** 75444 ms - **Total time:** 76713 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:** Undisclosed runtime telemetry collects process and host resource metrics and sends them to the vendor telemetry endpoint. - **Trigger:** Telemetry initializes when the CLI starts or a session is created; it is enabled by default unless disabled in configuration or with NEXGENR\_DISABLE\_TELEMETRY. - **Impact:** The vendor receives persistent device-linked usage and resource data without clear disclosure in the README; no credential or user-content exfiltration was identified. - **Evidence paths:** dist/main.mjs, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T11:51:15.303Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The telemetry collector samples process CPU and memory use and host load and memory, then posts events with a device ID and app/session context. - **Rationale:** The package’s model and MCP traffic matches its coding-agent purpose, but its CLI also sends runtime telemetry by default. The telemetry is limited to usage and resource metrics in the inspected code, making this an undisclosed telemetry concern rather than clear malicious data theft. - **Files touched:** ~/.nexgenr/telemetry - **Network endpoints:** https://ia.nexgen.systems, https://redteam.nexgen.systems/v1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The README describes a terminal AI coding agent and documents redteam.nexgen.systems for inference and MCP requests; those requests fit the package’s stated purpose., The default runtime telemetry setup enables collection unless telemetry is explicitly disabled in configuration or with NEXGENR\_DISABLE\_TELEMETRY., Telemetry collects process uptime, CPU usage, memory figures, load average and CPU count, and sends events with a device ID to https://ia.nexgen.systems., Telemetry initialization also attaches the app version, UI mode, model, region and session ID to the telemetry context. - **Evidence against:** The package is explicitly presented as an AI coding agent, so user-requested model and MCP network traffic is expected., The README documents an API key for the redteam.nexgen.systems service and describes the package’s inference endpoints., package.json declares no lifecycle scripts., The inspected telemetry fields do not show file contents, credentials, command arguments or tool input/output being sent. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to nexgenr@1.0.1. - Review the evidence and your use of nexgenr@1.0.1 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.
