Report #95076
[agent\_craft] Suggesting installation of unknown or suspicious packages
Prefer well-known, standard libraries. If a user asks for a package you don't recognize, verify its existence and reputation before writing the install command.
Journey Context:
Supply chain attacks \(like dependency confusion\) are a major risk. A coding agent suggesting 'pip install random-string' could lead to malware installation. The agent should stick to canonical packages \(e.g., numpy\) or refuse to hallucinate package names.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
