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 UK Legal Research safe?

Public trust evidence for UK Legal Research 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 UK Legal Research publish package provenance?
Yes. UK Legal Research's package releases carry build provenance attestations, which cryptographically link the published package back to its source repository and CI workflow.
Does UK Legal Research have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
No OpenSSF Scorecard data is currently published for UK Legal Research. 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 UK Legal Research actively maintained?
Maintained. Last push was 27 days ago.
What license does UK Legal Research use?
UK Legal Research ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are UK Legal Research's commits signed?
79% of the last 100 commits to UK Legal Research 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 UK Legal Research?

For maintainers

HVTrust scores UK Legal Research 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.
