### Dependency advisories — 30/100 (At Risk)

Matched the npm:node-minify@3.6.0 runtime dependency closure — what installing the published package pulls in — 235 packages. Reachability is not analyzed.

| Criterion | Status | Points | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Direct dependencies free of known advisories | partial | 11.8 / 35 | 2 affected: html-minifier 3.5.20 (high 7.5), terser 3.10.2 (high 7.5) |

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

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

## AI Readiness — 76/100 (Good)

How well is the repo equipped to be developed and maintained with AI coding agents? Carries a deliberately small weight: agent tooling is a real maintenance signal, but its absence must never gate the top of the scale (calibration saturates at raw 91, so 100/100 remains reachable with AI Readiness at zero).

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