PyCDisk

v0.1.7 safe
4.0
Medium Risk

A powerful Windows disk management library written in C++ with Python bindings

🤖 AI Analysis

Final verdict: SAFE

The package has a low risk score due to minimal network and credential risks, and no signs of obfuscation or malicious activity. The shell risk is slightly elevated due to subprocess calls, but this is likely related to C++ code compilation.

  • No network calls detected
  • Subprocess calls to 'cmake' for C++ compilation
  • Missing repository and author details
Per-check LLM notes
  • Network: No network calls detected, which is typical and not suspicious.
  • Shell: Subprocess calls to 'cmake' indicate the package likely involves C++ code compilation, which is common but should be monitored for unexpected behavior.
  • Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, indicating low risk.
  • Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, indicating low risk.
  • Metadata: The package shows some red flags due to the missing repository and author details, but lacks clear indicators of malicious intent.

💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with PyCDisk
Create a Windows-based disk management utility using the PyCDisk package. This utility will serve as a robust tool for managing disk drives on Windows operating systems. Your task is to develop a command-line interface (CLI) application that allows users to perform various operations on their disks, such as listing all connected drives, formatting a drive, checking the health status of a disk, and viewing detailed information about each drive including total space, free space, file system type, and more.

The application should have the following core functionalities:
1. List all connected drives with their respective drive letters.
2. Display detailed information about a selected drive including total capacity, free space, and file system type.
3. Format a specified drive with user-specified file system type (e.g., NTFS, FAT32).
4. Check the health status of a disk and display a summary of the health report.
5. Provide an option to safely eject a removable drive.

Utilize the PyCDisk package to interact with the disk management functionalities provided by Windows. Ensure that your application handles errors gracefully, provides clear and concise output, and includes a help menu to guide users through the available commands and options. Additionally, implement unit tests to validate the functionality of your application.

Your project should demonstrate a deep understanding of both the PyCDisk package and best practices in Python development.
