Is HexStrike AI safe? HexStrike AI scores 43.0/100 (Grade D), ranked #1095 of 1328 tracked open-source AI agent projects, on evidence coverage C (2 of 5 independent signal types). The public evidence: no package-provenance attestation found; OSSF Scorecard rates its supply-chain practices 1.5/10; 5% of recent commits are signed; last pushed 2026-08-03. Every point is earned from checkable signals — never paid placement. How scoring works →

Maintainer Checklist

Raise Scorecard signals Current OSSF Scorecard is 1.5/10. Tighten the weakest checks to improve public safety evidence.

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.

Refresh maintenance signals The repo was last pushed 48 days ago. Fresh activity helps separate stable projects from stale ones.

In Security & Guardrails

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 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 HexStrike AI safe?

Public trust evidence for HexStrike AI 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 HexStrike AI publish package provenance?

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

Does HexStrike AI have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

HexStrike AI has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 1.5/10. 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 HexStrike AI actively maintained?

Slowing down. Last push was 48 days ago — keep an eye on whether activity resumes.

What license does HexStrike AI use?

HexStrike AI ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.

Are HexStrike AI's commits signed?

4% of the last 100 commits to HexStrike AI 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.
