| dist/delay/always/always.delay.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected; the file is a standard TypeScript-compiled class extending a Delay base class with no network, filesystem, or process activity. |
| dist/delay/delay.base.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected; the code implements a simple delay mechanism with jitter for retry logic. |
| dist/delay/delay.factory.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected; the code is a simple factory for delay strategies with no network, file system, process, or dynamic code execution activity. |
| dist/delay/delay.interface.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected |
| dist/delay/skip-first/skip-first.delay.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected |
| dist/jitter/full/full.jitter.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected |
| dist/jitter/jitter.factory.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected; the file is a simple factory selecting between two jitter strategies with no network, filesystem, or dynamic code execution behavior. |
