In Research & Data

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 →

Is FinRobot safe?

Public trust evidence for FinRobot 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 FinRobot publish package provenance?

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

Does FinRobot have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

FinRobot has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 2.9/10. 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 FinRobot actively maintained?

Maintained. Last push was 10 days ago.

What license does FinRobot use?

FinRobot ships under Apache-2.0. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.

Are FinRobot's commits signed?

86% of the last 100 commits to FinRobot 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 FinRobot?

For maintainers

HVTrust scores FinRobot 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.
