Trawl
Version autocomplete and outdated warnings inside VS Code
What it does
Trawl connects VS Code directly to the npm registry. Open any package.json and it silently surfaces outdated dependencies as native diagnostics — red/yellow/blue underlines, just like TypeScript type errors. No commands, no terminal needed. • Semver-aware severity (major = error, minor = warning, patch = info) • Rich hover cards with live registry data • Version autocomplete with latest stable & dist-tags • One-click quick fixes to update or pin • Monorepo support with smart caching

- SNSafe-NPM – only install packages that are +90 days oldNov 2025 · github.com · ▲90
This past quarter has been awash with sophisticated npm supply chain attacks like [Shai-Hulud](https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widesprea...() and the [Chalk/debug Compromise](https://www.wiz.io/blog/widespread-npm-supply-chain-attack-b...).

- RLRobust LLM extractor for websites in TypeScriptMar 2026 · github.com · ▲72
We've been building data pipelines that scrape websites and extract structured data for a while now. If you've done this, you know the drill: you write CSS selectors, the site changes its layout, everything breaks at 2am, and you spend your morning rewriting parsers. LLMs seemed like the obvious fix — just throw the HTML at GPT and ask for JSON. Except in practice, it's more painful than that: - Raw HTML is full of nav bars, footers, and tracking junk that eats your token budget. A typical product page is 80% noise. - LLMs return malformed JSON more often than you'd expect, especially with…
