Maintainer Checklist
Raise Scorecard signalsCurrent OSSF Scorecard is 5.3/10. 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.
Refresh maintenance signalsThe repo was last pushed 55 days ago. Fresh activity helps separate stable projects from stale ones.
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 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 →

Public trust evidence for Portkey AI Gateway 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 Portkey AI Gateway publish package provenance?
No published build provenance is currently detected for Portkey AI Gateway. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.
Does Portkey AI Gateway have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
Portkey AI Gateway has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 5.3/10. 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 Portkey AI Gateway actively maintained?
Slowing down. Last push was 55 days ago — keep an eye on whether activity resumes.
What license does Portkey AI Gateway use?
Portkey AI Gateway ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are Portkey AI Gateway's commits signed?
74% of the last 100 commits to Portkey AI Gateway 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 Portkey AI Gateway?
HVTrust scores Portkey AI Gateway 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.
