> not every single one of the 1000 repos is THE SAME breed of malware. some overlap, maybe. but some is c#, some is rust, some is python

No, the article is specifically about 1115 malware repos built from the same template

This is taken from the intro of the article:

> Wrote a script that helped me find 1115 repositories built based on the instructions from the guide.

I don’t know what you think you’re talking about, but you’re not talking about the article that I’m talking about.

The template repo is here: https://github.com/Jalynn0922/steal-cook

It contains the main.py script that the article is talking about.

NOT the same malware template. article only details how "This first repo I found" works, not all of them. look at how his github searching script works in "Scraping Github" - there is no way to determine what malware is in the repo, only that it is doing keyword stuffing.
