4.0
Medium Risk

GUI for viewing a Python Abstract Syntax Tree.

🤖 AI Analysis

Final verdict: SAFE

The package is deemed safe with minimal risks identified. The primary concern is the presence of a non-HTTPS link, which could potentially expose users to man-in-the-middle attacks.

  • No network calls detected.
  • Non-HTTPS link present in metadata.
Per-check LLM notes
  • Network: No network calls detected, which is normal unless the package requires online resources to function.
  • Shell: No shell execution detected, indicating no immediate risk of command injection or system manipulation.
  • 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 may indicate a new or less active account, and there's a non-HTTPS link that could pose a security risk.

💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with astviewer
Create a Python-based mini-application named 'CodeSight' that leverages the 'astviewer' package to provide developers with an interactive and user-friendly way to visualize and explore the Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs) of their Python code snippets. CodeSight should allow users to paste or input Python code directly into the app, and then display the corresponding AST graphically. Additionally, the application should highlight specific nodes in the tree when hovered over, providing details about each node such as its type, value, and location within the original code snippet. Furthermore, implement a feature that allows users to modify parts of the AST visually and see the changes reflected in the underlying Python code in real-time. This project aims to deepen developers' understanding of Python's syntax structure and improve their coding skills through visual learning.
