Provenance

Supply chain provenance

Status for the latest visible version.

No SLSA provenance npm registry signatures gitHead linked

Without SLSA provenance there is no cryptographic link between this tarball and the public source — the axios compromise (March 2026) relied on exactly this gap.

Accepted risks

Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.

SourceRuleReasonAccepted byWhen
npm-metadata bundled-binaries AI (npm-metadata): The bundled binaries (xsel, clipboard_i686.exe, clipboard_x86_64.exe) are documented fallback clipboard utilities that are a core part of clipboardy's design across platforms. ai
semgrep semgrep:env-spread AI (semgrep): process.env is spread to pass environment to a local subprocess (pbcopy/pbpaste) with LC_CTYPE override. No exfiltration; standard pattern for locale-aware child process invocation. ai
