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 preflight-agentdiet-dev-github-repository-security-license-risk-auditor-925326e2
```

Example prompt: Before I add langchain-ai/langgraph as a dependency, can you audit that GitHub repo for license risks, maintenance health, and any supply-chain security red flags?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI coding agent or developer needs a pre-flight security and compliance check on a GitHub repository before adding it as a dependency, executing its code, or recommending it to a team. It is particularly valuable for enforcing open source license policies (e.g. blocking GPL in commercial projects), detecting abandoned or poorly maintained projects, and identifying supply-chain risks in the software dependency graph. Prefer this over manual GitHub inspection when automation, consistency, or cost-per-check economics ($0.01) matter.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent repo slug returns an error response
- Private repositories may return insufficient data or access errors
- Rate limiting from GitHub's underlying API may cause delayed or failed responses
- Repos with no license file may return uncertain license risk classification
- Very new repos with no activity metrics may return sparse results

## 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://preflight.agentdiet.dev/v1/repo-risk-score)

## Output

Returns a structured risk assessment for the specified GitHub repository, including license risk classification, maintenance velocity metrics, star and fork counts as popularity signals, and supply-chain security findings — enabling agents or developers to make an informed go/no-go decision before integrating or executing code from the repo.
