AI Analysis
Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS
The package shows signs of potential misuse due to its shell execution commands on macOS, despite having no network calls, obfuscation, or credential harvesting activities. The low activity and unfamiliarity of the maintainer also raise concerns.
- Shell risk due to subprocess.run usage on macOS
- Low activity and unfamiliar maintainer
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: No network calls detected, which is normal and not indicative of malicious activity.
- Shell: The use of 'subprocess.run' with 'security' command may be legitimate for macOS-specific operations but requires further investigation to ensure it's not being used for unauthorized actions.
- Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, indicating low risk.
- Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, indicating low risk.
- Metadata: The package is new with minimal activity and the maintainer has limited history, raising some suspicion.

AI App Starter Prompt
Use this prompt to build a project with agent-venv
Create a Python-based development environment manager called 'DevEnvWizard' that leverages the 'agent-venv' package to manage multiple isolated coding environments for different projects. DevEnvWizard should allow users to easily create, activate, deactivate, and delete virtual environments tailored for specific coding tasks or projects. Each environment should have its own unique set of dependencies and configurations, ensuring that projects do not interfere with each other. Additionally, DevEnvWizard should provide a feature to switch between these environments seamlessly without the need to manually activate and deactivate them using command line tools. Users should also be able to clone existing environments for similar but slightly different projects, maintaining consistency while allowing for necessary modifications. The application should include a user-friendly interface for managing these environments, and it should generate a report summarizing the current state of all managed environments. Utilize 'agent-venv' to handle the creation and isolation of these environments, ensuring that each one runs in a separate profile and workspace as described in the package documentation.
