Maintainer Checklist
Add Scorecard coverageExpose the repository to OpenSSF Scorecard checks so supply-chain posture is easier to verify.
Increase signed commitsRaise the share of verified-signed commits to make maintainer identity and release history easier to trust.
How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption. Grade C reflects the trust score band: A ≥ 80, B ≥ 65, C ≥ 50, D < 50. Evidence coverage B is separate — it grades how many independent signal types back the score (3 of 5), so a high score on thin evidence stays visible. Full methodology →

Bright Data MCP has a mixed signal profile. Some trust indicators are present, others are missing. Whether it is safe for your use case depends on which gaps matter to you — review the breakdown below before adopting in production.
Does Bright Data MCP publish package provenance?
Yes. Bright Data MCP's package releases carry build provenance attestations, which cryptographically link the published package back to its source repository and CI workflow.
Does Bright Data MCP have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
No OpenSSF Scorecard data is currently published for Bright Data MCP. Maintainers can enable the Scorecard GitHub Action to get a public score; without it, automated supply-chain hygiene is harder for outsiders to verify.
Is Bright Data MCP actively maintained?
Maintained. Last push was 24 days ago.
What license does Bright Data MCP use?
Bright Data MCP ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are Bright Data MCP's commits signed?
27% of the last 100 commits to Bright Data MCP 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.
These runtime-trust fields — detected from public repo docs and manifests — contribute a bounded adjustment to this project's HVTrust score alongside supply-chain evidence.

Maintain Bright Data MCP?
HVTrust scores Bright Data MCP 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.
