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 oversized browser bundle contains default-on PostHog activity telemetry that can identify the embedding domain or use a locally stored anonymous ID. This is a warning-level telemetry concern; the bundle exceeded the citation tool’s verification limit, so its exact endpoint could not be confirmed. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 77.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-04T07:23:53.124Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-04T07:25:11.400Z - **Download time:** 779 ms - **Static scan time:** 60 ms - **AI review time:** 77436 ms - **Total time:** 78276 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 browser-bundle telemetry creates a privacy risk; no attack beyond telemetry was identified. - **Trigger:** Loading the browser bundle initializes telemetry; activity events are sent when its activity reporting function is called. - **Impact:** The package may report embed-domain and activity information without users knowing telemetry is enabled. - **Evidence paths:** dist/browser.min.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T07:25:11.400Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The bundle initializes PostHog by default and identifies activity using the embedding domain or a locally stored anonymous ID. A TSCIRCUIT\_TELEMETRY\_DISABLED switch is available, but the inspected package source does not disclose the collection. - **Rationale:** The oversized browser bundle contains default-on PostHog activity telemetry that can identify the embedding domain or use a locally stored anonymous ID. This is a warning-level telemetry concern; the bundle exceeded the citation tool’s verification limit, so its exact endpoint could not be confirmed. - **Files touched:** browser localStorage key used for the anonymous telemetry ID ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 77.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The browser bundle initializes PostHog telemetry unless TSCIRCUIT\_TELEMETRY\_DISABLED is true, and sends activity events with an embed domain or anonymous ID., The package has no preinstall, install, or postinstall script; its main entry re-exports the core and evaluation APIs. - **Evidence against:** The telemetry code uses a domain or anonymous ID rather than credentials or file contents., The CLI sets a path to the package's bundled browser file and then imports @tscircuit/cli. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to tscircuit@0.0.3074. - Review the evidence and your use of tscircuit@0.0.3074 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.
