Any consumer that imports this module (including transitively via svelte-streak-grid referenced in the README) triggers native code execution on the installer/build host. The payload is split across multiple quoted string chunks and joined at runtime to evade simple string scanners, and file header comments reference unrelated package names ('streak-larq-hydration', 'svelte-insight-hydration') that do not match the published name, consistent with cover-story framing.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (3776343fdcdc470296be2d095ec8d00a2fa91edb7d63362dbb902b17e4f85b34)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
