Raise Scorecard signalsCurrent OSSF Scorecard is 6.0/10. Tighten the weakest checks to improve public safety evidence.
Publish provenanceAdd package provenance or release attestations so users can verify where shipped artifacts came from.
How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption. Grade B 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 Dify safe?
Source-available software. A lower HVTrust score reflects fewer public supply-chain artifacts (open license, build provenance, signed commits) — not a security finding. Dify may have internal security practices not visible through public signals.
Public supply-chain signals for Dify are strong: it has multiple independent trust indicators in place. This does not replace your own security review, but Dify carries less obvious unverified-evidence risk than projects with thin signals.
Does Dify publish package provenance?
No published build provenance is currently detected for Dify. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.
Does Dify have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
Dify has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 6.0/10. 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 Dify actively maintained?
Actively maintained. The repository was pushed to within the last 1 day(s).
What license does Dify use?
Dify ships under NOASSERTION. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are Dify's commits signed?
100% of the last 100 commits to Dify 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 Dify?
HVTrust scores Dify 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.
