Supply chain provenance
Status for the latest visible version.
Without SLSA provenance there is no cryptographic link between this tarball and the public source — the axios compromise (March 2026) relied on exactly this gap.

Accepted risks
Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.
| Source | Rule | Reason | Accepted by | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| provenance | publisher-changed | AI (provenance): Legitimate maintainer transition from 2014; zhiyelee is a long-standing trusted publisher with 27 approved packages. | ai | |
| provenance | missing-githead | AI (provenance): Old publish from 2014 era; npm metadata conventions differed. Not a risk signal for commander. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:child-process-import | AI (semgrep): Commander is a CLI framework that legitimately uses child_process to spawn sub-commands. This is a core, documented feature stable across all versions. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:child-process-spawn | AI (semgrep): spawn() calls are used to launch user-defined CLI sub-commands — fundamental to commander's purpose. No malicious use; stable across all versions. | ai | |
| provenance | no-provenance | AI (provenance): Established package with 370M weekly downloads and 5000+ day history. Lack of Sigstore provenance is not a meaningful risk signal here. | ai |

v15.0.0
2 findings[Accepted risk] Package was published without Sigstore provenance. Consider requesting the maintainer enable provenance via CI/CD.
This version was published by a different npm account (abetomo) than the most recent previously approved version (shadowspawn) on 2026-05-29, but abetomo is listed as a maintainer on prior approved versions (matched on name). This looks like a manual publish by a known maintainer rather than a publisher change. Recorded as INFO for audit trail.
