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. Static inspection shows an official Stream Chat SDK whose network, token, crypto, and websocket behavior are aligned with chat client/server functionality. The lifecycle finding is noisy: the postinstall script is guarded by existsSync for a missing Husky installer and no package source writes foreign files or agent control surfaces. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-05T02:20:19.811Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-05T02:21:13.686Z - **Download time:** 260 ms - **Static scan time:** 3828 ms - **AI review time:** 49786 ms - **Total time:** 53875 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 confirmed malicious attack surface. The package is a Stream Chat SDK with user-invoked HTTP/WebSocket API calls; the flagged postinstall hook is inert in the published package because its target file is absent. - **Trigger:** npm install for inert hook; runtime SDK API calls after application use - **Impact:** No install-time mutation or exfiltration confirmed; runtime network behavior is package-aligned chat API telemetry and requests - **Evidence paths:** package.json, src/index.ts, src/client.ts, src/connection.ts, src/connection\_fallback.ts, src/insights.ts, src/signing.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-05T02:21:13.686Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Stream Chat client API and guarded absent Husky installer - **Rationale:** Static inspection shows an official Stream Chat SDK whose network, token, crypto, and websocket behavior are aligned with chat client/server functionality. The lifecycle finding is noisy: the postinstall script is guarded by existsSync for a missing Husky installer and no package source writes foreign files or agent control surfaces. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/install-husky.mjs - **Network endpoints:** https://chat.stream-io-api.com, https://chat-insights.getstream.io/insights/${insightType}, /longpoll via configured Stream baseURL, WebSocket /connect via configured Stream baseURL ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines postinstall and prepare scripts, src/insights.ts can send runtime diagnostic payloads including token/user details to Stream insights when invoked - **Evidence against:** postinstall only checks for scripts/install-husky.mjs, and no scripts directory or install-husky.mjs exists in the package, No src matches for child\_process, shell execution, fs writes, AI-agent control-surface paths, or persistence files, Entrypoint src/index.ts only re-exports SDK modules; no import-time network or filesystem mutation found, Network use is SDK-aligned: Stream Chat API, WebSocket connect, longpoll, uploads, and Stream insights, Secrets/tokens are user-supplied SDK auth material used for Stream API signing/auth, not harvested from env/files ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to stream-chat@9.50.0. - Review the evidence and your use of stream-chat@9.50.0 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.
