TrustCheck Package Scanner (trustcheck) Package name

Know what you are installing before it reaches production.

TrustCheck Package Scanner brings package trust, provenance, vulnerability, dependency, and artifact checks into one focused command-line workflow. Use it for an individual PyPI release or scan an entire Python dependency file before installation, promotion, or approval.

What TrustCheck examines

• PyPI project and release metadata
• Published provenance and artifact digest attestations
• Trusted Publisher repository and workflow identity
• Repository mismatches and publisher drift
• Known vulnerabilities from PyPI and optional OSV data
• Direct and transitive runtime dependencies
• Wheels and source distributions through static inspection

Built for real Python projects

Scan package names, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, uv.lock, poetry.lock, and pdm.lock. Choose the balanced default policy, require stricter verification, or supply a custom JSON policy for your own release rules. Reports are available as readable terminal output or structured JSON for automation.

Quick start

 trustcheck inspect requests
 trustcheck inspect sampleproject --version 4.0.0 --strict
 trustcheck scan -f requirements.txt --policy strict

Artifact inspection reads archive contents without importing or executing the package being examined. The snap uses strict confinement and requests only network access plus access to dependency files you choose from your home directory or removable media.
