Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 8, Utility: 6)

Omnis Watchtower is a Claude Code plugin that intercepts npm and PyPI installs from coding agents, refusing typosquats, non-existent packages, known malware, and freshly published releases while summoning a hidden investigation subagent for ambiguous cases. It wraps this supply-chain defense in a live terminal radar visualization with demoscene themes. The project is notable for its measured validation against 1,000 popular packages, zero runtime dependencies, and thoughtful human-only override design.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, security engineers using coding agents
