Is it safe to run?Made outbound HTTPS connections: yes (hosts not recorded) by <guest-path>What we saw
Review signals across current setups: connection review, sensitive read.
Repository processes attempted these non-loopback connections; proxies can hide the final hostname. 8 distinct locations. 1 attributed processes.
PID 2397: <guest-path> · <guest-path>
A repository process attempted to read this sensitive path. Kind of file: saved web login. 2 findings. 3 attributed processes.
Reviewed as expected for a test run: attempted writes that failed, so nothing was written.

A quiet run is not a safety guarantee.
