  • Concentrated ownership — top contributor handles 54% of recent commits
  • GPL-3.0 is copyleft — check downstream compatibility
  • Scorecard: default branch unprotected (0/10)
  • Last commit today
  • 17 active contributors

What would improve this?

  • Use as dependency Concerns to Mixed if: relicense under MIT/Apache-2.0 (rare for established libs)
  • Deploy as-is Mixed to Healthy if: bring "Branch-Protection" to ≥3/10 (see scorecard report)
