The following npm versions of chainlink-docs are flagged malicious: 99.0.1. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate chainlink-docs if I installed it?

Remove chainlink-docs from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.

I already installed chainlink-docs — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If chainlink-docs 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.
