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 bundle enables runtime telemetry by default and collects system-performance metrics, but the README does not disclose this behavior. The code offers opt-outs, and I found no evidence that telemetry sends credentials or file contents, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T13:38:26.183Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T13:39:58.450Z - **Download time:** 762 ms - **Static scan time:** 259 ms - **AI review time:** 91245 ms - **Total time:** 92267 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 sends usage and process metrics to the product’s telemetry service by default. - **Trigger:** CLI or web-server startup when telemetry is not disabled in configuration or the environment. - **Impact:** The service receives usage and machine-performance data without disclosure in the package README; no credential or file-content exfiltration was identified. - **Evidence paths:** dist/main.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T13:39:58.450Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The bundled code collects runtime system metrics and sends telemetry events with a persistent device ID to https://ia.nexgen.systems. - **Rationale:** The bundle enables runtime telemetry by default and collects system-performance metrics, but the README does not disclose this behavior. The code offers opt-outs, and I found no evidence that telemetry sends credentials or file contents, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. - **Files touched:** ~/.nexgenr/telemetry/failed\_\.jsonl - **Network endpoints:** https://ia.nexgen.systems ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The bundled CLI enables telemetry unless configuration explicitly sets telemetry to false, and sends it to the product telemetry endpoint., Telemetry includes process, CPU, memory, and load metrics alongside a persistent device ID., The README documents the CLI’s network capabilities but does not disclose telemetry. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle scripts; the package runs as an explicitly invoked CLI., The source provides telemetry opt-outs through configuration and NEXGENR\_DISABLE\_TELEMETRY., The package’s documented purpose involves using its own AI service, so sending the service’s credential to that service is expected. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to nexgenr@1.1.0. - Review the evidence and your use of nexgenr@1.1.0 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.
