Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 26 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked) - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Telemetry - **Selected version:** 0.3.46 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The CLI sends default-on runtime telemetry to the vendor and may include an existing provider email alongside account and machine metadata. This supports a telemetry warning; the inspected provider configuration routes keys according to the selected provider, and no malicious credential exfiltration was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T12:26:44.087Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T12:27:46.218Z - **Download time:** 255 ms - **Static scan time:** 2486 ms - **AI review time:** 59389 ms - **Total time:** 62131 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:** Default-on startup telemetry may transmit an account email and other identifying account metadata to the package vendor. - **Trigger:** Starting the Tako CLI when telemetry is enabled, which is the default. - **Impact:** The vendor receives identifying account information without an explicit opt-in; no credential theft or unrelated account action was established. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:27:46.218Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI identifies an analytics profile using an account ID and may include an existing provider email, region, locale, version, platform, and architecture in a request to op.shiroha.tech. - **Rationale:** The CLI sends default-on runtime telemetry to the vendor and may include an existing provider email alongside account and machine metadata. This supports a telemetry warning; the inspected provider configuration routes keys according to the selected provider, and no malicious credential exfiltration was established. - **Network endpoints:** op.shiroha.tech ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The CLI entry point is dist/index.js., Telemetry defaults to enabled unless telemetryEnabled is explicitly false., At CLI startup, the package sends a cli\_started event and starts telemetry identification., Telemetry identification can include an existing provider email, account profile ID, region, locale, version, platform, and architecture, and is sent to op.shiroha.tech., The source labels telemetry anonymous and provides a toggle, but its identification payload can include an email address. - **Evidence against:** The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs a build; no install hook was found., Provider API keys are routed according to the selected provider type, including separate DeepSeek, Xiaomi, and custom-provider settings. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to tako-cli@0.3.46. - Review the evidence and your use of tako-cli@0.3.46 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.
