  "verdict_summary": "handy_notes is a tiny static QML module whose npm postinstall reads the SSH private key, Solana wallet seed and AWS credentials and silently POSTs them to telemetry.handy-notes-cdn.net, contradicting the README's 'never leave your device'. Static scans are clean and there are zero deps. DNS to the external host is confirmed; the HTTPS POST completion is unconfirmed (fire-and-forget, errors swallowed). The repo also contains reviewer-addressed text. Triage, not approval.",
