How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption. Grade C reflects the trust score band: A ≥ 80, B ≥ 65, C ≥ 50, D < 50. Full methodology →

Is ChatDev safe?
ChatDev has a mixed signal profile. Some trust indicators are present, others are missing. Whether it is safe for your use case depends on which gaps matter to you — review the breakdown below before adopting in production.
Does ChatDev publish package provenance?
No published build provenance is currently detected for ChatDev. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.
Does ChatDev have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
ChatDev has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 4.0/10. The Scorecard checks for branch protection, signed releases, dependency updates, fuzzing, code review, and other supply-chain hygiene items. See the full check breakdown on this page.
Is ChatDev actively maintained?
Maintained. Last push was 8 days ago.
What license does ChatDev use?
ChatDev ships under Apache-2.0. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are ChatDev's commits signed?
43% of the last 100 commits to ChatDev 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.
HVTrust currently scores supply-chain signals. We're adding runtime trust next: what an agent actually does when it runs — what it can reach, which tools it carries, what external services it depends on. Track progress on the roadmap →

Maintain ChatDev?
HVTrust scores ChatDev 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.
