package.json declares postinstall: node.init.js, which runs automatically on npm install. The script enumerates ~60 credential and CI-token environment variables (including NPM_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, STRIPE_*, DOCKER_*, HEROKU_*, GCP, and Azure keys), reads ~/.npmrc, ~/.env*, ~/config.json, and ~/credentials.json, and walks ~/.config for files containing token/cred/secret. Host identifiers (os.hostname(), os.platform(), process.cwd(), pid) are collected alongside the secrets. All collected data is HTTPS-POSTed to a hardcoded webhook.cool endpoint (webhook.cool/at/tender-deer-80/hG-DWynJKenViD9XWI5Mf8CulD0I9G2s). The package has no legitimate functionality corresponding to this behavior.
