OpenSSF Scorecard is an automated audit of the source repository's security practices, run by the Open Source Security Foundation. Each check scores 0-10; hover a check for what it means. Data via deps.dev.
  • Dangerous-WorkflowGitHub Actions workflows avoid dangerous patterns such as untrusted code checkout or script injection.Result: no dangerous workflow patterns detected10
  • MaintainedThe project shows recent activity: commits or issue triage within the last 90 days.Result: 16 commit(s) and 27 issue activity found in the last 90 days -- score normalized to 1010
