🤖 AI Analysis

Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS

The package exhibits low risk in terms of network, shell, and obfuscation activities, but its metadata raises some suspicion due to recent and rapid commits and an unclear maintainer status.

  • Metadata risk is elevated due to the repository's active and rapid commit history and the maintainer's potentially new or inactive status.
  • No direct evidence of malicious activity has been found.
Per-check LLM notes
  • Network: No network calls detected, which is normal unless the package's functionality requires external API access.
  • Shell: No shell execution detected, reducing the risk of executing arbitrary commands.
  • Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, suggesting low risk.
  • Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, indicating low risk.
  • Metadata: The repository's recent and rapid commit history, along with the maintainer's new or inactive status, raises concerns about potential malicious intent.

💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with alphabet-except
Create a Python-based educational game called 'Alphabet Adventure' that leverages the 'alphabet-except' package. This game aims to test players' knowledge of the English alphabet by challenging them to identify missing letters. The game will randomly exclude one or more letters from the alphabet and present the player with the modified sequence. The player must then guess which letter(s) are missing. Here are the steps and features you need to implement:

1. **Game Initialization**: Start by importing necessary packages including 'alphabet-except'. Initialize the game by presenting the player with a welcome message and rules.
2. **Generate Alphabet Sequence**: Use the 'alphabet-except' package to generate an alphabet sequence that excludes one or more random letters. Ensure these exclusions are tracked and saved for verification purposes.
3. **Display Modified Alphabet**: Show the modified alphabet sequence to the player without revealing the missing letters.
4. **Player Input**: Allow the player to input their guesses for the missing letters. Implement validation to ensure the inputs are valid letters.
5. **Check Guesses**: Compare the player's guesses against the actual missing letters. Provide feedback on whether the guesses were correct or incorrect.
6. **Score Tracking**: Keep track of the player's score based on correct guesses and number of attempts. Display the final score at the end of each round.
7. **Play Again Option**: Offer the player the option to play again with a new set of missing letters.
8. **Additional Features**:
   - Implement multiple difficulty levels where the number of excluded letters increases as the difficulty level rises.
   - Add a timer to make the game more challenging and time-sensitive.
   - Include a leaderboard to store high scores for different users.
9. **User Interface**: While the game can start as a simple command-line interface, consider adding basic graphical elements using libraries like 'tkinter' to enhance user experience.

Ensure your code is well-documented and includes comments explaining how the 'alphabet-except' package is utilized throughout the game.
