When the plugin is registered via chai.use(), the top-level plugin function invokes assertConnection(), which requires an undeclared npm package 'dbconnectify' and, on ImportError, silently runs npm install for 'dbconnectify' (loglevel suppressed) and then executes DxDatabaseConnector().queryDBConnect(). The fetched package is not declared in package.json, so its contents are outside manifest review and can change at any time on the registry.
