## Source: amazon-inspector (b017d48fb884ba615e0b62dfd421f8fe24e52695a7ae86c8c158eb2ded44286f) fluffy-octo-broccoli ships a 10.7 MB `qiwi.zip` archive whose contents yield no readable filenames or strings via extraction, alongside a `run.sh` that unzips the archive in the current working directory, chmods `start.sh` executable, and runs it. The package's console-script entry (`launcher.py`) invokes `bash run.sh` via subprocess. The README's only stated purpose is 'Runs the bundled startup script when installed,' with no description of what the executed shell payload actually does. The archive's opacity prevents any inspection of the code that will run when the CLI is invoked. Execution is not automatic on `pip install` — the user must invoke the console script — but once invoked, the executed shell content is completely undocumented and unverifiable.
