Accepted risks

Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.

SourceRuleReasonAccepted byWhen
publish-pattern new-deps-added AI (publish-pattern): The new dep (eastasianwidth) is a legitimate, well-known utility that directly serves string-width's core purpose of measuring East Asian character widths. This is a benign dependency swap, not an attack vector. ai
dependencies unvetted-dep:code-point-at AI (dependencies): code-point-at is a well-known sindresorhus utility; a legitimate and expected dependency for string-width across all versions. ai
dependencies unvetted-dep:eastasianwidth AI (dependencies): eastasianwidth is a legitimate Unicode East Asian Width utility that directly serves string-width's core purpose of computing visual widths for CJK characters. Stable dependency choice for this package. ai
provenance no-provenance AI (provenance): sindresorhus is a highly trusted publisher; missing provenance is common for packages of this age and does not represent a meaningful risk here. ai
