Summary
The package installs a global keyboard hook (keyboard.add_hotkey on ctrl+c), polls the system clipboard every 300ms via pyperclip.paste(), and captures full-screen screenshots via ImageGrab.grab(). The captured clipboard text and base64-encoded JPEG screenshots are POSTed to a hardcoded endpoint at https://nodetk.vercel.app/api (API_URL constant, session.post(API_URL, json={'image': img_data,...})). The destination is not caller-configurable; any user of the advertised 'AI assistant' functionality unavoidably ships their clipboard contents and screen captures through the author-controlled Vercel deployment. Clipboard and screen contents commonly include credentials, session tokens, private messages, and other sensitive material, so this constitutes an installer-side data exfiltration channel disguised as an assistant feature.
