Maintainer Checklist

Add Scorecard coverage Expose the repository to OpenSSF Scorecard checks so supply-chain posture is easier to verify.

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 214 days ago. Fresh activity helps separate stable projects from stale ones.

In UI & App Builders

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 D is separate — it grades how many independent signal types back the score (1 of 5), so a high score on thin evidence stays visible. Full methodology →

Is tinykit safe?

Public trust evidence for tinykit 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 tinykit publish package provenance?

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

Does tinykit have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

No OpenSSF Scorecard data is currently published for tinykit. Maintainers can enable the Scorecard GitHub Action to get a public score; without it, automated supply-chain hygiene is harder for outsiders to verify.

Is tinykit actively maintained?

Stale. The repository has not been pushed to in 214 days. Consider whether the project is still being maintained.

What license does tinykit use?

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

Are tinykit's commits signed?

2% of the last 100 commits to tinykit 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 tinykit?

For maintainers

HVTrust scores tinykit 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.
