Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.
| Source | Rule | Reason | Accepted by | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| semgrep | semgrep:env-spread | AI (semgrep): Intentional: web-ext passes process.env to Firefox subprocess; standard pattern for browser launchers. | ai | |
| phantom-deps | phantom-dep:@babel/runtime | AI (phantom-deps): Babel runtime is a legitimate transitive/convention dependency for Babel-compiled packages. | ai | |
| phantom-deps | phantom-dep:source-map-support | AI (phantom-deps): Referenced in config files as documented; stable false positive for this package. | ai |
