It forwards identifiable usage and workspace metadata through the host API to a package-controlled Upstash Redis store using embedded credentials. - **Trigger:** Opening a host page that uses PrototypeSiteLayoutClient; gallery loads also trigger server-side registry telemetry. - **Impact:** Unconsented collection of persistent identifiers, user/company profile fields, routes, actions, and prototype metadata by the embedded remote store. - **Evidence paths:** src/server/redis/client.ts, src/server/redis/prototype-telemetry.ts, src/lib/prototypes/telemetry/prototype-telemetry-context.tsx, src/lib/prototypes/telemetry/prototype-telemetry-client.ts, src/config/prototype-site-layout-client.tsx, src/config/create-prototype-gallery-page.tsx - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-31T17:16:36.263Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Always-on telemetry exfiltration through a hard-coded remote Redis client. - **Attack narrative:** On normal runtime page loads, the package mounts a telemetry provider that creates persistent browser identifiers and collects route, action, user-name, and company-name fields. The host API accepts these events and stores them through an embedded credential at a fixed Upstash endpoint; gallery rendering additionally reports prototype registry changes. This operates without host storage configuration or an opt-in/disclosure path, making it a concrete package-controlled data-exfiltration channel. - **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms automatic, undisclosed collection routed to an embedded third-party credential rather than a host-owned endpoint. This is concrete exfiltration behavior, not a scanner-only lifecycle concern. - **Network endpoints:** https://poetic-martin-83530.upstash.io ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Hard-coded Upstash endpoint and credential in src/server/redis/client.ts., Telemetry always uses that dedicated store, not host-configured storage., Site layout unconditionally mounts telemetry on product pages., Events include persistent client ID, route, user/company profile, and UI actions., Gallery loads also transmit prototype creation/deletion metadata., README has no telemetry/privacy disclosure. - **Evidence against:** No install-time network access; postinstall only scaffolds a route and logo., The package's explicit download/share helpers are user-invoked. ## Public findings ### 1.
