### Dependency advisories — 39/100 (At risk)

Excluded from scoring (no data or not applicable): Indirect dependencies free of known advisories. Remaining weights renormalized. Matched 1956 resolved dependencies against OSV. This repository publishes no package the index resolves, so the repository dependency graph was assessed instead. That graph mixes development and test pins with shipped dependencies, so only the declared runtime dependencies are scored; transitive findings are reported as context and excluded from the score. Reachability is not analyzed.

| Criterion | Status | Points | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Direct dependencies free of known advisories | partial | 6.4 / 35 | 4 affected: lodash catalog: (critical 9.1), moment catalog: (high 7.5), @babel/runtime catalog:build (moderate 6.2), +1 more |
| Indirect dependencies free of known advisories | excluded | 0 / 25 | transitive set not separable from development and test dependencies in this scope |
| No advisories left outstanding | partial | 23.2 / 40 | 4 advisory-carrying package(s) unaddressed past 90 days; oldest published 3192 days ago |

### Malicious dependencies — 100/100 (Excellent)

| Criterion | Status | Points | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| No dependency reported as a malicious package | met | 100 / 100 | no dependency is reported as a malicious package |

### High-Risk Jurisdiction Exposure — 100/100 (Excellent)

Only high-confidence self-published location evidence affects this multiplier. Ambiguous matches are review-only; country evidence is not proof of nationality, citizenship, legal registration, malicious intent, or sanctions status.

| Criterion | Status | Points | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Policy exposure multiplier | met | 100 / 100 | no confirmed policy-scope location match |

## AI Readiness — 74/100 (Good)

How well is the repo equipped to be developed and maintained with AI coding agents? An independent, experimental badge — weight 0.0, so it is surfaced on its own and does not affect the overall health score.

### Agent context & guidance — 85/100 (Excellent)

|---|---|---|---|
| Agent instructions | met | 45 / 45 | AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, design-system/AGENTS.md, design-system/CLAUDE.md, packages/components/icons/AGENTS.md, packages/components/icons/CLAUDE.md, packages/components/inputs/rich-text-input/AGENTS.md, packages/components/inputs/rich-text-input/CLAUDE.md, packages/components/inputs/rich-text-utils/AGENTS.md, packages/components/inputs/rich-text-utils/CLAUDE.md, packages/i18n/AGENTS.md, packages/i18n/CLAUDE.md, presets/ui-kit/AGENTS.md, presets/ui-kit/CLAUDE.md |

## What this report is

inspect.software measures public repositories against a single published, versioned methodology and reports the result as a 1–100 health index. Findings are signals derived from what is visible in public repository data — they are not a security audit, a warranty, or an endorsement, and no result depends on payment.
