3 Key Points

  1. Implit scans code for hallucinated imports by checking external packages against npmjs.org registry, validating local file exports, and detecting typos with fuzzy matching (e.g., suggesting 'magic-auth-lib' for 'magic-auth').

  2. The tool runs in 0.3 seconds with zero configuration required via `npx @neurall.build/implit check <file>`, caches npm lookups for 24 hours, and includes a `--fix` flag that generates clipboard-ready prompts to feed back to Claude, GPT, or Gemini for code regeneration.

  3. Implit prevents supply chain attacks by warning of typosquatting (packages similar to popular ones), includes an optional git pre-commit hook via `implit install-hook`, and integrates npm audit for vulnerability scanning via `implit audit`.
