Review of the shellgrip 0.1.0 pypi package did not surface any evidence of installer-side harm. No install-time or import-time network activity, no credential or environment harvesting, no filesystem persistence, no dropper or fetch-and-execute pattern, and no silent-relay behavior were observed in the shipped files.
