@mhoye While the whole situation from AI injection down to 'packages can postinstall global packages' is a series of bad to insane decisions, the only thing I really don't understand is ... why install openclaw on machines? Was this trying to achieve something or just show it was possible?

@mhoye could you share the source? Thanks in advance

I didn’t know about using “OpenID Connect (OIDC) to authenticate GitHub Actions” and wonder how many surfaces it closes and whether it opens new surfaces?

@mhoye postinstall was probably the worst thing added to npm - it's been there since the start with absolutely no effort to secure it or remove it

@tanepiper It's been around in the Debian dpkg system for ages, and it's got a lot of utility in that context and definitely works system-wide. But the Debian community doesn't have the NPM "let anyone do anything whatever" ethos, and the versioning systems in that part of the world are much slower and more methodical. You pretty much need to be on Sid and updating every day to get bitten by this in that part of the ecosystem.
