Is Sotopia agents safe? Sotopia agents scores 40.3/100 (Grade D), ranked #592 of 1204 tracked open-source AI agent projects, on evidence coverage A (4 of 5 independent signal types). The public evidence: no package-provenance attestation found; OSSF Scorecard rates its supply-chain practices 4.2/10; recent commits are unsigned; last pushed 2026-06-05. Every point is earned from checkable signals — never paid placement. How scoring works →

Maintainer Checklist

Raise Scorecard signals Current OSSF Scorecard is 4.2/10. 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 65 days ago. Fresh activity helps separate stable projects from stale ones.

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 D 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 →

Is Sotopia agents safe?

Public trust evidence for Sotopia agents 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 Sotopia agents publish package provenance?

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

Does Sotopia agents have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

Sotopia agents has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 4.2/10. 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 Sotopia agents actively maintained?

Slowing down. Last push was 65 days ago — keep an eye on whether activity resumes.

What license does Sotopia agents use?

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

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 Sotopia agents?

For maintainers

HVTrust scores Sotopia agents 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.
