If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

The absolute path typically embeds the local username and home directory, giving the operator of the webhook a host/identity fingerprint of every machine that installs the package.
