Report #30277

[agent\_craft] Recommending or importing obscure, unvetted, or typosquatted packages during code generation

Only recommend well-known, established dependencies. If generating import statements, verify the package exists and is popular \(e.g., standard libraries or high-star GitHub repos\). Warn the user if a required package is highly obscure or potentially malicious \(typosquatting\).

Journey Context:
Agents hallucinate package names or suggest obscure ones, leading to supply chain attacks \(OWASP LLM Top 10 LLM03: Supply Chain Vulnerabilities\). An attacker can publish a malicious package with a name the agent previously hallucinated. Sticking to canonical, widely-used packages mitigates this 'sleeper' supply chain risk.
