Description
What needs to be done
Investigate potentially updating our build process to protect against recent supply chain attacks
Why it needs to be done
Security etc
Acceptance Criteria
- Review the example from ecr-viewer and see how easily we can implement a similar behavior
Technical Notes
- Basically: introducing a cooldown period for new dependencies and not allowing automatic scripts to run during package install unless explicitly allowed.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked ecr-viewer pull request and then inspect this repository's current build and package-install configuration; no specific files or tests are named in the issue. Determine whether a dependency cooldown and explicit approval for install scripts can be applied here. Done means documenting the feasibility and a concrete implementation approach.
