Dynamic module loading
NPS-503DD57549E6
The package intentionally performs dynamic module resolution and import based on caller-provided paths/module IDs. This is the core purpose of the package ('import-from-esm') and is not hidden or obfuscated. It does not itself introduce malicious behavior, but consumers should be aware that it can load arbitrary modules from the filesystem or node_modules relative to a provided directory.
