🤖 AI Analysis

Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS

While the package shows low risks in terms of network usage, shell execution, obfuscation, and credential handling, the metadata risk is notably high due to the novelty and suspiciousness of the repository and author's profile.

Metadata risk score is 7 out of 10
Repository and author have limited history

Per-check LLM notes

Network: No network calls detected, which is normal and expected.
Shell: Shell execution is used for running tests and the main CLI command, which aligns with typical behavior for a CLI tool.
Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, indicating low risk.
Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, indicating low risk.
Metadata: The repository and package are extremely new, with suspiciously few commits and an author with limited history, indicating potential risk.
