AI Analysis
Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS
The package has a moderate risk score due to potential misuse of shell commands and suspicious metadata, despite having low risks in other categories.
- Shell risk due to potential console clearing which can mask activities
- High metadata risk due to suspicious git repository activity and new maintainer history
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: No network calls detected, indicating low risk.
- Shell: Detected shell execution is likely for clearing the console and may not indicate malicious intent, but could be used to mask activities.
- Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, indicating low risk of malicious intent.
- Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, suggesting no immediate threat to secrets or credentials.
- Metadata: High risk due to suspicious git repository activity and new maintainer history.

AI App Starter Prompt
Use this prompt to build a project with PyKeyeasy
Create a fully-functional mini-application called 'QuickNote' using Python, which leverages the PyKeyeasy package for ultra-simple keyboard event detection. QuickNote is designed to allow users to take notes quickly by capturing keystrokes and automatically storing them as notes when certain hotkeys are pressed. Here's a detailed breakdown of the application's functionality and suggested features: 1. **Initialization**: When QuickNote starts, it initializes the PyKeyeasy package to listen for keyboard events. 2. **Hotkey Detection**: Define a set of hotkeys (e.g., Ctrl+Shift+N) that will trigger note creation. Use PyKeyeasy to detect these hotkeys. 3. **Note Capture**: Upon detecting a hotkey, QuickNote captures all keystrokes until another hotkey (e.g., Ctrl+Shift+S) is pressed to signal the end of the note. 4. **Storage Mechanism**: Implement a simple storage mechanism to save the captured notes locally on the user's device. Notes could be stored in plain text files named according to the date and time they were created. 5. **Display Functionality**: Allow users to view their saved notes through a simple GUI or console output. 6. **Optional Features**: - **Search Functionality**: Add a search feature that allows users to find specific notes based on keywords. - **Tagging System**: Enable users to add tags to their notes for better organization. - **Auto-Save**: Automatically save notes at regular intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes). 7. **User Interface**: Design a clean and intuitive user interface where users can easily start, stop, and manage their notes. 8. **Testing and Validation**: Ensure the application works correctly by testing various scenarios such as long notes, special characters, and multiple note entries. Utilize PyKeyeasy's capabilities to make the hotkey detection process seamless and efficient, ensuring QuickNote is both powerful and user-friendly.
