+ ## 🕵️ Caught in the Wild
32

33
+ AI agents frequently hallucinate package names that look correct but either don't exist or have been squatted by malicious actors. Here are real examples Agentinel intercepts:
34
+
35
+ - **`react-codeshift`**: Hallucinated by an agent attempting to migrate React versions.
36
+ - **`unused-imports`**: Hallucinated instead of the real `eslint-plugin-unused-imports`.
37
+
38
+ **How Agentinel handles it:**
39
+ ```bash
40
+ $ npm install react-codeshift unused-imports
41
+
42
+ ⚠️ agentinel warning: 'react-codeshift' does not exist on npm (hallucination).
43
+ ⚠️ agentinel warning: 'unused-imports' is 2 days old and has 12 downloads.
44
+ This matches the profile of a slopsquatting or malicious package.
45
+
46
+ agentinel blocked the installation.

+ - **Zero-Cost & Private:** Agentinel does no network interception, runs no cloud proxies, and makes no LLM or API calls. The malware list is matched locally.
54
+ - **Lightning Fast:** Full local lockfile scans complete in ~1.4 seconds.
34
55
  - **Deep Tree Scanning:** Checks every package an install would *actually* bring in, not just the one named. (`npm install express` brings in 67 packages. We check all 67).
35
56
  - **Known Malware:** Bundles a local OSV database of 216,000+ confirmed malicious packages.
36
57
  - **Zero False Positives on Popular Packages:** Tested against the top 100 npm packages.
37
58
  - **Heuristic Scanning:** Flags npm takedowns, packages under 30 days old with < 1k downloads (slopsquatting), publisher drift, and non-existent hallucinated names.
38
59
  - **Cross-Platform Compatibility:** Fully tested and natively supported across macOS, Linux, and Windows.
