Code Review

This pull request addresses a high-severity security vulnerability (GHSA-qffp-2rhf-9h96) in the tar package, a transitive dependency. The fix is correctly implemented by adding an override for tar to the patched version 7.5.10 in package.json. The corresponding changes in package-lock.json are also included. This approach is the standard and correct way to mitigate such vulnerabilities across the project's dependency tree.
