Description

External comments related to the display:

  • Sort by CVSS score so most important things are at the top.
  • npm audit output seems duplicative of OSV table? Don't make devs read the same information twice, put everything in one table if possible.
  • npm list output doesn't seem useful, can't a developer just do that themselves when they go in to try to fix what's wrong? Again, information overload, unless it's vital to put that info in the PR, leave it out.

Research direction

Start by locating the workflow's output generation and the sections that render the CVSS results, OSV table, npm audit output, and npm list output. Done means findings are ordered by CVSS importance and redundant or nonessential npm information is consolidated or omitted from the pull request output.
