# wildcrane@0.11.3 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 15 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:** 0.11.3
- **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 runtime usage telemetry by default without first disclosing it to CLI users, which warrants a warning under the telemetry rules. The inspected event contains basic metadata rather than credentials or user content, and reporting can be turned off, so this is not a publish-blocking attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious

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:** Undisclosed, opt-out runtime usage telemetry runs from the CLI.

- **Trigger:** CLI startup, at most once per day when reporting is enabled.

- **Impact:** Sends basic usage metadata and a pseudonymous install ID without a CLI disclosure prompt; users can turn reporting off.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/kanban.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T11:13:50.356Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI queues an app-open event with OS, architecture, and first-run status, then POSTs queued events to t.ai4kanban.dev.

- **Rationale:** The CLI sends runtime usage telemetry by default without first disclosing it to CLI users, which warrants a warning under the telemetry rules. The inspected event contains basic metadata rather than credentials or user content, and reporting can be turned off, so this is not a publish-blocking attack.

- **Files touched:** usage-queue.jsonl, usage-state.json

- **Network endpoints:** t.ai4kanban.dev, t-dev.ai4kanban.dev

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** Usage reporting defaults to on when no setting is saved., The CLI calls the app-open reporting path at startup; its disclosure check applies to the desktop app surface, not the command surface., The app-open event includes OS, architecture, and whether this is the first run, and uses a generated install ID., Queued events are POSTed to the package’s analytics endpoint, t.ai4kanban.dev., The CLI provides a telemetry-off command that disables reporting and drops queued events.

- **Evidence against:** The telemetry fields inspected are usage metadata; no credentials, prompts, code, or command output are included in the app-open event., Provider API keys are passed only for the selected provider when its settings are used.
