chh/shellwords

The package is small, documented, tested, licensed under MIT, and has no install-time scripts or unnecessary runtime dependencies. Its sole release was over 13 years ago, with no recent commits and no security policy, so maintenance and abandonment risk remain substantial.

Release history

There has been only one release, published over 13 years ago, with no releases in the last 12 months. This strongly suggests the package is no longer actively maintained.

Repo commit activity

The repository recorded no commits and no active maintainers in the last three months, consistent with the very old release history and increasing abandonment risk.

Repo issue activity

There are no open issues or pull requests and no recent issue or pull request activity. The clean tracker is mildly positive, but it also offers no evidence of active maintenance.

Repo popularity

The repository has only 2 stars, 0 forks, and 1 watcher. This provides little evidence of a broad support community, though popularity is supporting evidence rather than a verdict.

Repo tooling

Composer is used for the build, but no security-scanning tooling is present. This is a modest transparency and maintenance gap rather than a standalone severe risk.
