Flag misspelled, brandjacked, and typosquatted package names across npm, PyPI, and crates.io before installation, using edit-distance, keyboard-proximity, and known-target corpus matching with typomania, Microsoft OSSGadget's oss-find-squats, and pypi-scan. Use before adding a new dependency, as a CI/CD gate on pull requests, when reviewing an AI-generated ("slopsquatting") dependency list, or when auditing a lockfile diff for a swapped package.
