I'm trying to feel more comfortable using random GitHub projects, basically.

You would first need to define malicious code within the context of that repo. To some people, telemetry is malicious.

Yes, of course, the idea would be something like passing the AI a repo link and a prompt like "this repo is supposed to be used for X, tell me if you find anything weird that doesn't fit that purpose".
