# GitHub Repository Security & License Auditor

> GitHub Repository Security & License Auditor is a paid API for AI agents from onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-23).

Evaluates a GitHub repository for license risk, maintenance velocity, dependency supply-chain security, stars, and forks before integrating or executing code from it.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability onchain-risk-agentdiet-dev-github-repository-security-license-auditor-bc521358 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I add langchain-ai/langgraph as a dependency, can you audit that GitHub repo for license risks, supply-chain vulnerabilities, and check how actively it's maintained?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI coding agent needs to vet a third-party GitHub repository before integrating it as a dependency or executing its code — especially when license compliance, supply-chain security, or maintainer activity is a concern. Prefer this over manual GitHub inspection when you need a structured, machine-readable risk summary. It is particularly valuable in automated CI/CD pipelines or agent workflows where human review is not feasible.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent repository format (owner/name) returns an error
- Private repositories that are inaccessible to the scanner return an access error
- GitHub API rate limiting may cause intermittent failures
- Repositories with no dependency files may return partial results
- Network timeout if GitHub is slow to respond

## How this service works

Evaluates any GitHub repository for license risk, maintenance velocity, stars/forks, and supply-chain security before code execution. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev/v1/github-scanner)

## Output

Returns a structured report on the repository including: license type and risk level, maintenance velocity (commit frequency, last commit date), stars and forks counts, supply-chain security findings (vulnerable dependencies, suspicious packages), and an overall risk assessment.
