- **Impact:** No security impact identified from the inspected source.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T13:00:10.681Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Setup copies bundled scripts and platform binaries into dist/. No malicious collection or execution behavior was identified in the inspected source.

- **Rationale:** The install hook stages this terminal session manager’s bundled scripts and binaries, with no install-time network access or credential collection found.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign
