A minimal Node.js wrapper around ClamAV that scans any file and returns a typed Verdict Symbol:

  • Verdict.Clean
  • Verdict.Malicious
  • Verdict.ScanError

Zero runtime dependencies. No daemon. No cloud. No native bindings. Works locally via clamscan or remotely via clamd TCP socket (Docker-friendly).

npm install pompelmi
