marmelab/atomic-crm: technical due diligence, read from its repository

What Borehole read in marmelab/atomic-crm's code and history at 9eb8349: its licence, security advisories, releases, review practice, tests, dependencies and operations. Every finding cites the file and line it rests on. The full report also covers the team and asks the questions the code cannot answer.

Architecture & Codebase — including AI provenance

strong

No finding.

Engineering Process & SDLC Maturity

strong
02.16

Tests are retried until they pass

adequate

The suite is configured to retry failing tests (playwright.config.ts). A retry turns a flaky test green without saying why it failed, so a green build means the tests passed eventually. Ask how many retries a typical run needs, and which tests need them.

Evidence
playwright.config.ts:23 — test retry

Product & Engineering Maturity

adequate
04.19

15% of bug fixes add or change a test

adequate

Of 334 fixes in the last 24 months, 49 touched a test. A fix without the test that would have caught the bug can quietly come back, and the suite never learns from what went wrong.

Evidence
49 of 334

Security & Reliability Posture

adequate
05.1

1 credential-shaped string in the tree sit in tests, examples, documentation or local development settings

adequate

Strings shaped like credentials appear only where fakes are usual: test fixtures, examples, documentation, placeholders and local stacks. They are almost always fakes. Ask someone to confirm that none of them works anywhere, because a real key in a development file is still a real key.

Evidence
JWT, where fakes are usual
05.2

None of the standard security guard rails are configured

adequate

There is no disclosure policy, no automated dependency updates, no named code owners and no pre-commit configuration. None of these is load-bearing on its own. Their collective absence says that security posture here is whatever the current team happens to remember to do, which is not a posture that survives the team changing.

Evidence
checked 5 kinds of guard rail across 862 tracked files; 0 present
05.25

1 environment file is committed

adequate

supabase/functions/.env is tracked in git. Environment files are where credentials usually live, and committing one usually means nobody decided how secrets reach the running application. Whatever is in it is in the history for good. Check 05.1 says whether it holds anything credential-shaped.

Evidence
supabase/functions/.env — committed environment file
05.27

The build runs third-party code it does not pin

adequate

3 third-party CI actions are referenced by a tag or branch rather than a commit, so they run whatever that tag points to on the day. Tags have been moved to malicious commits in real supply-chain attacks, and a piped script is whatever the server returns that minute. Pinning to a commit is the fix, and it is small.

Evidence
.github/workflows/check.yml:41 — action pinned by tag
.github/workflows/claude.yml:35 — action pinned by tag
05.26

2 locked dependencies have published vulnerabilities, 1 high or critical in what ships

adequate

2 of 408 locked dependencies match 2 published advisories in OSV, 1 of them rated high or critical. A lockfile says which version is installed, not whether the flawed code is reachable from this product, so each needs a look. Most are fixed by an upgrade, and the advisory names the version.

Evidence
package-lock.json — zod 4.6.5: GHSA-mrhx-c7xc-m3w5 (high), fixed in 4.6.6
package-lock.json — decode-uri-component 0.2.2: GHSA-vcc3-ghjq-m6fr (moderate), fixed in 0.5.0
05.49

The production build publishes source maps

adequate

The build configuration emits source maps for production, so the original source, with its comments and structure, is downloadable by every visitor. Upload them to an error tracker and keep them off the public server instead.

Evidence
vite.config.ts:66 — source maps in a production build
