The package has a long history and 519 releases, but it has had no release in the last 12 months and its latest release was in January 2025, indicating a serious maintenance slowdown.
There were zero commits and zero active maintainers in the last three months, providing direct evidence that current maintenance has stopped.
The linked repository is archived even though it was last pushed in March 2025. An archived source project is a severe abandonment signal for a dependency.
No build attestation or trusted-publisher provenance is present, leaving publication origin less verifiable, though this is secondary to the repository's maintenance status.
There were no new or closed issues and no pull-request activity in the last month, consistent with an inactive project and reinforcing the abandonment concern.
