Hello
This file is using monorepo-symlink-test which is a malicious package described here

Could you please remove this file which seems useless ?

Thank you

Because it's a private package that just coincidentally has the same name as the malicious one, it is a false positive - so whatever tool is flagging this repo is broken, and you should strongly reconsider using a tool that is this naive about npm package names.

It’s not useless; tests must be shipped with packages so that npm explore foo && npm install && npm test always works.
