You may as well just completely replace your package manager with this one simple script.

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys

exec(TrustedAgent.request(f"Write a Python statement to install {sys.argv[1]}, make no mistakes"))

Also "Please don't reformat my hard drive"

"Try to keep out the worst malware'd packages"

I mean, you could do away with package managers altogether... Just always include "use standard library components only" in every prompt.

Added bonus, your program will be very secure because it would very rarely be affected by any publicly known CVEs.

Honestly... in a world where code is written by AI and not humans, most frameworks SHOULD go away. They were designed to make a task easier for humans not for a machine. AI should not write "react on node using vue"
