## 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 x402broker-com-github-repository-security-license-auditor-c385f63f
```

Example prompt: Before I pull in modelcontextprotocol/servers as a dependency, can you audit the GitHub repo for license risks, how actively it's maintained, and any supply-chain security concerns?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent or developer needs a pre-integration security and compliance snapshot of a GitHub repository — especially for supply-chain risk assessment, license compliance checks, or evaluating open source project health before pulling in a new dependency. Prefer it over generic search endpoints when you need structured, actionable security metadata rather than raw repository content.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent repository name returns an error or empty result
- Private repositories may be inaccessible without authentication
- Rate limiting from underlying GitHub API may cause transient failures
- Repositories with no license file may yield incomplete license risk data
- Malformed owner/name format triggers a validation error

## 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://x402broker.com/v1/github)

## Output

Returns a structured report covering the repository's license type and associated legal risk level, commit activity and maintenance velocity, star and fork counts as community health signals, and supply-chain security findings including dependency vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns — giving agents a go/no-go assessment before code integration.
