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

Is Codex safe?
Public supply-chain signals for Codex are strong: it has multiple independent trust indicators in place. This does not replace your own security review, but Codex carries less obvious unverified-evidence risk than projects with thin signals.
Does Codex publish package provenance?
Yes. Codex's package releases carry build provenance attestations, which cryptographically link the published package back to its source repository and CI workflow.
Does Codex have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
Codex has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 6.6/10. 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 Codex actively maintained?
Actively maintained. The repository was pushed to within the last 1 day(s).
What license does Codex use?
Codex ships under Apache-2.0. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are Codex's commits signed?
100% of the last 100 commits to Codex 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 Codex?
HVTrust scores Codex 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.
