In detail: Founder Skills scores 33.3/100 (Grade D), ranked #351 of 371 tracked open-source AI agent projects, on evidence coverage B (3 of 5 independent signal types). The public evidence: no package-provenance attestation found; OSSF Scorecard rates its supply-chain practices 2.6/10; 2% of recent commits are signed; last pushed 2026-05-18. Every point is earned from checkable signals — never paid placement. How scoring works →

How Founder Skills could raise its score

Each line changes one public signal and recomputes with the live scoring function. The gains don't add up exactly, because the score is capped near the top.

Chain of custody

Scanners check what the code says. This traces who ships Founder Skills and whether that has changed: from the source repository, through how changes are reviewed and released, to the code you run. These are the checks for OWASP ASI04 Agentic Supply Chain Vulnerabilities and, for skills, AST02 Supply Chain Compromise.

  1. Source Partly signed

    github.com/ognjengt/founder-skills, MIT, last pushed 2026-05-18. 2% of the last 100 commits carry a verified signature; the rest can't be tied to a verified identity.

  2. Review and release Weak

    OpenSSF Scorecard rates the repository's practices 2.6/10 (scanned Oct 8, 2026). The checks that decide who can get a change released:

  3. Published packages None

    No registry package. Founder Skills is used from its repository, so what you run is whatever you check out: pin a release tag or commit.

Verify this score yourself

Every build re-issues Founder Skills’s score as an Ed25519-signed credential, valid for 7 days. You can check it offline against HVTracker’s published key; if anyone changes a number after signing, verification fails.

Signed credential (JSON) How to verify

What this score doesn’t check

It covers who ships the code, not what the code does. It doesn’t read the skill’s instructions for injected instructions, watch runtime behaviour, or find bugs nobody has disclosed yet. For that, run a content scanner before you install it, such as Cisco Skill Scanner.

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 D 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 →

Common questions about Founder Skills

Public trust evidence for Founder Skills 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 Founder Skills publish package provenance?
No published build provenance is currently detected for Founder Skills. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.
Does Founder Skills have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
Founder Skills has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 2.6/10. 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 Founder Skills actively maintained?
Slowing down. Last push was 146 days ago — keep an eye on whether activity resumes.
What license does Founder Skills use?
Founder Skills ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are Founder Skills's commits signed?
2% of the last 100 commits to Founder Skills 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.

For maintainers

HVTrust scores Founder Skills 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.
