unhealthy

Risky: the release is an almost exact artifact match for a better-established package owned by someone else.

Health Score Breakdown

Name lookalike

The artifact overlap with php-standard-library/php-standard-library is 98.7%, and that package has 73 stable releases versus 10 here. Although the README does not identify this as a copy, the near-total overlap is a severe identity and dependency-selection risk.

Repo bus factor

All recent commit activity comes from one contributor, with a 100% commit share. Organization backing provides some handoff capacity, but no second active contributor is evidenced.

Repo commit activity

The repository received only 1 commit in the last 3 months from 1 active maintainer. Recent publishing shows activity, but source maintenance evidence is thin.

Security policy

The repository has no security policy, leaving vulnerability reporting and response expectations undocumented. This is a transparency gap, though it is less severe than the package identity concern.
