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 combination of os/system enumeration, child_process command execution (e.g. `whoami`), and an outbound HTTPS POST in the same file is the canonical host-reconnaissance and exfiltration shape. The package name suggests a JSON-to-GraphQL schema converter, and there is no legitimate reason for such a converter to ship a script that runs `whoami`, reads host identity, and ships the results off-host. Installing or executing this package gives the publisher tangible host reconnaissance data from the installer's machine.\n\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
