Maintainer Checklist
Add Scorecard coverage Expose the repository to OpenSSF Scorecard checks so supply-chain posture is easier to verify.
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.

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. Full methodology →

Is ByteRover CLI safe?

Source-available software. A lower HVTrust score reflects fewer public supply-chain artifacts (open license, build provenance, signed commits) — not a security finding. ByteRover CLI may have internal security practices not visible through public signals.
Public trust evidence for ByteRover CLI 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 ByteRover CLI publish package provenance?
No published build provenance is currently detected for ByteRover CLI. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.
Does ByteRover CLI have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
No OpenSSF Scorecard data is currently published for ByteRover CLI. 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 ByteRover CLI actively maintained?
Actively maintained. The repository was pushed to within the last 5 day(s).
What license does ByteRover CLI use?
ByteRover CLI ships under NOASSERTION. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are ByteRover CLI's commits signed?
34% of the last 100 commits to ByteRover CLI 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.

AI agent surface

Profile context only

HVTrust currently ranks supply-chain and project-integrity trust only. This public view shows a compact AI-agent surface snapshot from repo docs and manifests. These fields are descriptive context and do not affect the production HVTrust rank. An experimental local preview remains available in Score Lab →, and the policy boundary is tracked on the roadmap →

Maintain ByteRover CLI?

HVTrust scores ByteRover CLI 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.
