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

Is Continue safe?
Public trust evidence for Continue is thin: several supply-chain signals are missing or weak. This does not mean the project is unsafe — it means an outside observer cannot easily verify the usual integrity checks. Treat with extra scrutiny.
Does Continue publish package provenance?
No published build provenance is currently detected for Continue. This is common for open-source projects but means consumers cannot independently verify that the package on the registry matches the GitHub source.
Does Continue have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
No OpenSSF Scorecard data is currently published for Continue. Maintainers can enable the Scorecard GitHub Action to get a public score; without it, automated supply-chain hygiene is harder for outsiders to verify.
Is Continue actively maintained?
Actively maintained. The repository was pushed to within the last 1 day(s).
What license does Continue use?
Continue ships under Apache-2.0. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
Are Continue's commits signed?
89% of the last 100 commits to Continue 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.
Runtime trust — coming soon
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 Continue?
HVTrust scores Continue 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.
