Safe npx

antland npx <pkg> prints a safety report score, elevated-capability risks, the publisher (and whether their GitHub is verified), and any typosquat warning. then asks before running:

npx antland npx @acme/cli --help   # shows the report, prompts, then runs

  @acme/[email protected]  ants.land

  Score      78/100
  Publisher  Jane Doe @jane  ✓ github:jane
  Risks      runs install scripts, network access

  Run this package? [y/N]

Pass -y/--yes to skip the prompt (required in non-interactive shells). The report is built from GET /api/package/score. Anything after the package name is forwarded verbatim to the program.
