AI Analysis
Final verdict: SAFE
The package appears safe with minimal risks across all categories. There are no indications of malicious behavior, network calls, shell execution, or obfuscation. The only slight concern is the metadata risk due to the maintainer having only one package.
- Low network risk
- No shell execution
- No obfuscation
- Metadata risk due to single package by maintainer
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: No network calls detected, which is normal unless the package requires internet access for its functionality.
- Shell: No shell execution patterns detected, indicating no immediate signs of malicious activity.
- Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, indicating low risk.
- Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, indicating low risk.
- Metadata: The maintainer has only one package, which could indicate a new or less active account, but no other red flags are present.

AI App Starter Prompt
Use this prompt to build a project with abx-dl
Create a Python-based utility called 'WebGrabber' that leverages the 'abx-dl' package to download and process content from various online sources. This utility should allow users to input a URL, select preferred file formats to download, and automatically organize downloaded files into different directories based on their type (e.g., images, videos, documents). Additionally, implement a feature that extracts metadata from downloaded files, such as image dimensions, video duration, or document title, and display it alongside the download progress. Finally, add a simple user interface using the 'cmd' module to enhance user interaction. Utilize 'abx-dl' to handle the downloading and extraction processes efficiently.
