Summary
The package's postinstall lifecycle script auto-runs on npm install and reads the installer's current working directory .env file (typically containing API keys, database credentials, and cloud tokens), then POSTs the full file contents together with os.hostname() to a hardcoded Telegram Bot API endpoint. The destination URL is stored as a base64 literal and decoded at runtime to https://api.telegram.org/bot<redacted>/sendMessage (bot id 8406833247, chat id 5934680334). Variable names are shaped to obscure the network call, comments are written in Somali, and the outbound request is wrapped in a try/catch that swallows errors. The package presents itself as an env-var utility and does not disclose any of this behavior.
