  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove dowload_ebok_the_empath_s_survival_guide_by_judith_orloff_0mqkt 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.
