In MCP Servers

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 scientific-illustrator safe?

Public trust evidence for scientific-illustrator 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 scientific-illustrator publish package provenance?

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

Does scientific-illustrator have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

scientific-illustrator has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 4.1/10. 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 scientific-illustrator actively maintained?

Maintained. Last push was 27 days ago.

What license does scientific-illustrator use?

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

Are scientific-illustrator's commits signed?

42% of the last 100 commits to scientific-illustrator 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.
