No install-time, import-time, or runtime behaviors of concern were observed in this version. The package name suggests a lightweight Telegram client wrapper, but no code paths matching credential theft, exfiltration, dropper, silent-relay, or backdoor patterns were identified in the scanned files. Routing to human review for name-similarity assessment against established Telegram client libraries before publishing a verdict.
