⚠ Under reviewrunlot CLI — deploy apps and manage PostgreSQL
AI Security Review
scanned 10d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected CLI source shows ordinary error reporting and development-runtime selection, but it also launches a shipped native executable whose behavior remains unresolved. That material gap prevents a clean verdict, while the inspected source does not establish a concrete attack.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Run the CLI path that selects the development runtime.
Impact
The native runtime's behavior and effects remain unknown.
Mechanism
The CLI locates the platform-specific executable and starts it as a child process; the executable analysis was unsupported.
AI rationale
The inspected CLI source shows ordinary error reporting and development-runtime selection, but it also launches a shipped native executable whose behavior remains unresolved. That material gap prevents a clean verdict, while the inspected source does not establish a concrete attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 96.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The manifest exposes dist/index.js as the runlot CLI and includes a bin directory.
- The CLI resolves a platform-specific runlot-dev-runtime and starts it as a child process.
- The supplied offline analysis identifies the shipped executable as an unsupported artifact and says its behavior remains unresolved.
- The inspected JavaScript reports filtered CLI errors to Sentry; the report path has telemetry opt-outs and is called for non-API errors.
Evidence against
- The inspected JavaScript ties the reviewed Sentry request to CLI error reporting; it does not establish credential theft or another concrete attack.
