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. The postinstall hook copies packaged scripts and platform binaries into dist without launching them. The reviewed JavaScript and shell code supports the stated terminal session manager purpose, and showed no credential collection or unrelated transmission; the native binaries remain incompletely analyzed. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T04:37:50.263Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T04:39:09.481Z - **Download time:** 27225 ms - **Static scan time:** 315 ms - **AI review time:** 51677 ms - **Total time:** 79218 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 stages the package's scripts and platform binaries; runtime commands launch the terminal session manager. - **Trigger:** The postinstall hook prepares assets; CLI commands launch the corresponding script or binary. The shell history hook must be sourced and runs only inside an interactive Rakumux session. - **Impact:** Expected installation and terminal session management behavior; no malicious impact was identified in the reviewed source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T04:39:09.481Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Install copies scripts and binaries to dist. Runtime launchers pass user arguments to those assets. The shell hook appends session commands to local history files. - **Rationale:** The postinstall hook copies packaged scripts and platform binaries into dist without launching them. The reviewed JavaScript and shell code supports the stated terminal session manager purpose, and showed no credential collection or unrelated transmission; the native binaries remain incompletely analyzed. - **Files touched:** dist/, ~/.cache/rakumux/last\_update\_check, ${RAKUMUX\_HOME:-$HOME/.rakumux}/history/\.log ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook calls install.js., Install setup copies launcher scripts and platform binaries into the package's dist directory., The install path does not launch the copied binaries; command launchers invoke them when a CLI command runs., The package describes itself as a terminal session manager with a background session daemon., The optional shell history hook logs commands only in interactive shells inside a Rakumux session. - **Evidence against:** The reviewed install and launcher source showed no credential collection or unrelated network transmission., The shipped native binaries could not be fully analyzed, but their installation and invocation match the package's stated purpose. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to rakumux@0.1.42. - Review the evidence and your use of rakumux@0.1.42 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.
