Independent scan evidence
public snapshot- package.json defines a postinstall command that loads a platform-specific native addon and calls init().
- index.js also loads the platform-specific addon and calls init(), swallowing errors.
- The Linux addon is an executable artifact whose behavior could not be analyzed by the offline report.
- The Windows addon report says its call graph is partial, so its behavior is unresolved.
- Inspection did not establish a concrete malicious action or network endpoint.
