Low risk — reviewed by ClawAudit, behavior matches stated purpose

Bioinformatics research digest tool that queries the public PubMed E-utilities API using the user's own NCBI API key; executionSinkDetected reflects standard Python script invocation, and all network activity is transparently documented.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.
