Maintainer Checklist

Declare an open license Publish a clear OSI-approved license so usage and maintenance terms are independently verifiable.

Raise Scorecard signals Current OSSF Scorecard is 1.2/10. Tighten the weakest checks to improve public safety evidence.

Publish provenance Add package provenance or release attestations so users can verify where shipped artifacts came from.

Increase signed commits Raise the share of verified-signed commits to make maintainer identity and release history easier to trust.

In Agent Frameworks

How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption. Grade D reflects the trust score band: A ≥ 80, B ≥ 65, C ≥ 50, D < 50. Evidence coverage A is separate — it grades how many independent signal types back the score (4 of 5), so a high score on thin evidence stays visible. Full methodology →

Is BabyAGI safe?

Public trust evidence for BabyAGI is thin: several supply-chain signals are missing or weak. This does not mean the project is unsafe — it means an outside observer cannot easily verify the usual integrity checks. Treat with extra scrutiny.

Does BabyAGI publish package provenance?

No published build provenance is currently detected for BabyAGI. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.

Does BabyAGI have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

BabyAGI has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 1.2/10. The Scorecard checks for branch protection, signed releases, dependency updates, fuzzing, code review, and other supply-chain hygiene items. See the full check breakdown on this page.

Is BabyAGI actively maintained?

Stale. The repository has not been pushed to in 206 days. Consider whether the project is still being maintained.

What license does BabyAGI use?

BabyAGI ships under no SPDX license detected. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.

Are BabyAGI's commits signed?

40% of the last 100 commits to BabyAGI are verified-signed (GPG, SSH, S/MIME, or GitHub's signing flow). Signed commits help confirm that code was authored by who the commit claims.

Not a safety endorsement. HVTracker describes what public signals show, not whether a project is safe for your use case. Run your own security review before adopting in production.

Maintain BabyAGI?

For maintainers

HVTrust scores BabyAGI from public signals only — we never contact maintainers first. If a signal is wrong, stale, or missing (provenance you publish, a Scorecard you run, signed releases), tell us and we'll review it. Corrections are public and tracked on GitHub.
