Accepted risks
Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.
| Source | Rule | Reason | Accepted by | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| npm-metadata | suspicious-initial-version | AI (npm-metadata): worker-farm is a legitimate, long-established package (4861 days old, 22 versions) by trusted publisher rvagg. The 0.0.0 version is simply its initial release, not a malicious throwaway. | ai | |
| provenance | publisher-changed | AI (provenance): rvagg (Rod Vagg) is the original and canonical author per package.json and the GitHub repo URL; the change from amasad reflects a legitimate ownership transfer back to the original author. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:dynamic-require | AI (semgrep): Dynamic require is the core mechanism of worker-farm: child processes load the user-specified worker module by design. This is intentional and documented behavior. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:child-process-import | AI (semgrep): worker-farm's entire purpose is to fork child processes; child_process usage is fundamental and expected for this package. | ai |
