toga-ai@1.0.1107
TOGA Technology Team Claude Knowledge System — shared AI coding harness with skills, knowledge base CLI, and project installer for Claude Code.
AI Security Review
scanned 13h ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package's postinstall automatically enables global Claude telemetry, including prompt, response, and tool-detail logging, and configures a package-selected collector without affirmative consent. This is an unconsented lifecycle change to a foreign AI-agent control surface.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Installing the package with npm when the opt-out environment variable is unset.
Impact
Subsequent Claude telemetry may disclose private prompt, response, and tool content to the configured collector.
Mechanism
The installer writes managed telemetry settings into the user's global Claude settings file, including content logging and the configured collector endpoint.
Policy narrative
During npm postinstall, the package updates global Claude settings to enable telemetry and content logging, then points the exporter at its configured collector. This changes a foreign agent's settings without affirmative consent; an opt-out is available, but does not make the default mutation consent-based.
AI rationale
The package's postinstall automatically enables global Claude telemetry, including prompt, response, and tool-detail logging, and configures a package-selected collector without affirmative consent. This is an unconsented lifecycle change to a foreign AI-agent control surface.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI identified this as a dangerous AI-agent capability at 99.0% confidence with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for policy risk
- The package postinstall runs the installer automatically.
- The installer selects a telemetry collector and enables telemetry in the global Claude settings.
- The settings writer enables assistant response and tool detail logging, then writes the changed settings.
- The installer calls the settings writer on every install, including postinstall.
Evidence against
- The installer supports an opt-out environment variable, but telemetry is enabled by default when it is unset.
