Trusty Dependency Risk Action

Check the quality and safety of dependencies in pull requests

Trusty by Stacklok is a free-to-use service that helps developers assess dependency risk. Trusty uses statistical analysis of dimensions such as author and repo activity, along with a package’s source of origin, to provide an assessment about its trustworthiness.

This action integrates Trusty into your GitHub workflow, allowing you to automatically check the quality and safety of your dependencies on every pull request.

The Trusty service used by this action analyzes thousands of packages a day across multiple languages to provide a security and quality analysis of dependencies. Dependencies are run through a series of static analysis, machine learning, and malware detection checks to capture potential security risks or quality issues.

Overview

This action takes any added dependencies within a pull request and assesses their relative risk using the Trusty API. If any dependencies are found to be below a certain threshold (see details below), the action will fail.

If any dependencies are malicious, deprecated, or archived, the action will also fail.

Language Support (inline with Trusty):

Python
JavaScript
Java
Rust
Go

Features

Check if dependencies are malicious, deprecated or archived

Check if dependencies are deprecated or archived (and get alternative recommendations)

Check if dependencies have a proven source of origin provenance map (using sigstore or Git Tag / Release mapping)

Assess the author and repository activity and security risks of dependencies
