If you installed it — respond
github.com/thankfulmai/hypert is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove github.com/thankfulmai/hypert, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.
Did it already run?
If github.com/thankfulmai/hypert was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.
