## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 19 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.1.0-rc.179
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 flagged process, environment, network, and dynamic-code references resolve to the CLI's local development runtime, API client, and schema validation. Crash reporting sends scrubbed diagnostics to Sentry, is disclosed by the CLI, and can be disabled with RUNLOT\_TELEMETRY=0.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T09:06:22.322Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-31T09:07:11.999Z

- **Static scan time:** 6109 ms
- **AI review time:** 43057 ms
- **Total time:** 49677 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 identified; the CLI sends disclosed crash telemetry and uses its configured Runlot API for authenticated requests.

- **Trigger:** Crash telemetry runs when a CLI command fails with a reportable non-API error; authenticated API calls occur during user-invoked commands.

- **Impact:** Crash diagnostics are reported to the package's Sentry project. API credentials go to the selected API service; local worker secrets are available to the local runtime.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T09:07:11.999Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI sends scrubbed crash details to Sentry and sends its Runlot token to the selected API origin. Local development starts workerd with configured project secrets.

- **Rationale:** The flagged process, environment, network, and dynamic-code references resolve to the CLI's local development runtime, API client, and schema validation. Crash reporting sends scrubbed diagnostics to Sentry, is disclosed by the CLI, and can be disabled with RUNLOT\_TELEMETRY=0.

- **Files touched:** ~/.runlot/credentials.json, ~/.runlot/telemetry-notice

- **Network endpoints:** https://dash.runlot.io, https://o4512108816105473.ingest.us

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes dist/index.js as the CLI and has no install lifecycle hook., The default API is https://dash.runlot.io; credentials are looked up by API origin, and requests send the token to the selected API URL., Crash reports contain scrubbed exception details, stack, and command arguments and go to the configured Sentry endpoint; the CLI discloses this telemetry and provides RUNLOT\_TELEMETRY=0 to disable it., The CLI starts workerd with project secrets in its child environment for local development; this behavior is part of its stated dev-runtime purpose.

- **Evidence against:** The bundle uses environment variables, child processes, and dynamic evaluation, but the inspected paths fit CLI, build, and local development behavior., The package includes a native runtime binary, but the reviewed source uses it to serve the user's local worker.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to runlot@0.1.0-rc.179.

- Review the evidence and your use of runlot@0.1.0-rc.179 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.
