opik@2.2.113
Opik TypeScript and JavaScript SDK
AI Security Review
scanned 14d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe scanner’s command-output exfiltration hint is not borne out by the inspected CLI: it sends usage metadata and does not include captured command output or credentials. The observed telemetry is package-aligned and has an explicit environment-variable opt-out.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Running the opik CLI records invocation and uv status events, then flushes telemetry on the error or handoff path.
Impact
The event exposes command and flag data plus basic runtime and platform details to the package telemetry service. The inspected payload contains no credentials or captured process output, so no attack surface was established.
Mechanism
The CLI posts JSON usage metadata to https://stats.comet.com/notify/event/. Analytics can be disabled with OPIK_ANALYTICS_ENABLE; its fallback anonymous identifier hashes the hostname and username.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 96.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json routes SDK imports and the CLI to dist files and lists build and maintenance scripts, with no install hook.
- Running the CLI builds usage events containing the command, flags, session, SDK and platform details, then sends them as JSON to the package telemetry endpoint.
- Analytics can be disabled with OPIK_ANALYTICS_ENABLE; the anonymous identifier uses a configured workspace or a hash of the hostname and username.
- The inspected runtime, type and dependency excerpts show SDK exports, provider integrations, terminal styling and INI parsing; they did not establish another exfiltration path.
