Slopsquatting candidates — names attackers will target next

Package names multiple LLMs repeatedly hallucinate are exact targeting information for attackers — "register this and someone will install it". We see those names before attackers do.

How we detect

We regularly run a matrix of hundreds of programming prompts through major LLMs (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama) and harvest the package names they recommend. Cross-model agreement raises the target score. The registry status is checked live against npm/PyPI/crates.io for (1) non-existence, (2) recent registration with suspicious patterns, and (3) empty wrappers around famous names.

Bulk package check

Paste package names suggested by an LLM, one per line. Flagged candidates appear below.
