In Agent Skills

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 C is separate — it grades how many independent signal types back the score (2 of 5), so a high score on thin evidence stays visible. Full methodology →

Does Claude Code Guide have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

Claude Code Guide has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 3.1/10. 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 Claude Code Guide actively maintained?

Actively maintained. The repository was pushed to within the last 1 day(s).

What license does Claude Code Guide use?

Claude Code Guide ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.

Are Claude Code Guide's commits signed?

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.
