StarGuard: Trust Scores for GitHub Repositories
2025-05-12
StarGuard is a CLI tool designed to detect fake star campaigns, dependency hijacking, license red flags, and other indicators of open-source risk on GitHub. By analyzing stars, dependencies, licenses, maintainers, and code, it generates a trust score, enabling CTOs, security teams, and VCs to quickly assess open-source risks. StarGuard outputs JSON, Markdown, and plain text reports, along with star history plots and shields.io badges.
