Health Score Breakdown

Lifecycle scriptscaution

An install script is present, which is expected for a native addon that may need to obtain or build binaries, though it adds install-time complexity.

Project backingcaution

The repository is owned by an individual rather than an organization, so the concentrated contributor activity and single registry maintainer provide less visible handoff capacity.

Repo bus factorcaution

One contributor made 20 of 21 recent commits, creating a real continuity risk despite the presence of a second active contributor.

Security policycaution

No repository security policy was found, leaving vulnerability-reporting guidance less transparent than ideal.

Workflow auditcaution

Both workflows use read-only permissions and the audit completed fully with no untrusted checkouts or script-injection counts, but all 18 action references are unpinned. High-confidence template-injection findings are hygiene concerns here because no dangerous trigger was reported; the low-confidence cache finding carries little weight.
