Nothing significant. Questions worth asking about Security & Reliability Posture, Product & Engineering Maturity.

103 checks ran across 6 assessable dimensions. 2 findings are worth checking first. 19 findings, each with evidence. One dimension cannot be assessed without an acquirer.

Worth checking first

Borehole's proprietary scoring is calibrated across hundreds of repositories. Each finding here reads significant, but its check has not yet held up often enough in that calibration to rate significant on its own. If one holds when someone checks it, it is significant.

backend/windmill-api-workspaces/src/workspaces.rs is 14,679 lines, 225× this codebase's median file

adequate

The median source file here is 65 lines. 213 files exceed 1,000 lines, the largest being 14,679. Size is not a defect on its own — some problems genuinely live in one place — but these are where merge conflicts, review fatigue and single-owner knowledge concentrate, and they are the first thing that slows an inheriting engineer down. Measured against its own codebase's median, it is larger than 92% of 382 surveyed projects' largest files.

Tests are retried until they pass

adequate

The suite is configured to retry failing tests (frontend/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.

Bus factor 1: recent work is concentrated in one contributor

adequate

In the last 24 months, one contributor authored more than half of 7,143 non-merge commits among 84 authors; across all history, more than half of 14,426. This is the single most expensive thing to discover after closing, and the repository cannot tell you whether that person is part of the transaction.

107 direct dependencies in a single manifest

adequate

frontend/package.json declares 107 direct dependencies. Each one is a maintenance obligation, a supply-chain surface and a potential licence question that transfers with the asset. The count says nothing about whether any given dependency was a good choice; it says how many such choices a buyer inherits.

Node.js 20 is past end of life

adequate

The code is pinned to Node.js 20 (end of life 2026-04-30). None of these receives security fixes any more; the first stopped on 2026-04-30. Moving off an unsupported runtime is rarely a one-line change, so a buyer should ask whether the upgrade is planned and what it touches.

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. 7 other matchs set aside: expired tokens, licence tokens a vendor verifies with a public key, or placeholder text where a key would go. None grants access to anything.

Evidence
JWT JWT, where fakes are usual

4 Dockerfiles run the application as root

adequate

No USER instruction switches away from root, so the process runs with full privileges inside the container. It is a one-line fix and an ordinary expectation, which is why its absence is worth asking about: it usually says more about whether anyone has reviewed the deployment than about this container specifically.

Evidence

49 locked dependencies have published vulnerabilities, 4 high or critical in what ships

adequate worth checking first

49 of 2,342 locked dependencies match 65 published advisories in OSV, 11 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. This lockfile pins development tools alongside what ships and does not say which is which, so some of these may never reach a user.

The check that found this reads significant, but it has not yet held up often enough in Borehole's calibration to rate a finding significant on its own. Opening python-client/wmill/uv.lock and the 2 other files it cites settles it. If it holds when someone checks it, this finding is significant.

1 workload setting give a container the host

adequate worth checking first

1 places in the deployment configuration run a container privileged or in the host's network, process or IPC namespace. A compromise of that container is a compromise of the machine, and most acquirers' security reviews block it. Node agents (network, storage, monitoring) are excluded.

.env, frontend/.env are 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.

05.27

The build runs third-party code it does not pin

adequate

25 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; 8 steps pipe a download straight into a shell. 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.

2 SQL statements built from strings

2 places in product code build SQL by formatting or joining strings rather than passing parameters.

4 deserialisers that can run code

11 advisories against this project in the last 24 months, 5 high or critical

adequate

The newest was published on 2026-09-10. A project that publishes advisories is telling its users about its fixes, and the count and pace say how much security work it carries. Whether 3 of them are fixed in the code you ship could not be told from this history: its version is only known to be at least 1.820.0. Answer lives in: the release you run, set against each fixed version.

Not rated: structurally not assessable from a repository. What a person adds here.

Check it on the running system

10 checks against the running system follow from the findings above: what a buyer's engineer will try, how to run it first, and what to have ready. A paid survey of this repository includes them. See the tiers.

A paid survey of a public repository is also reviewed: a language model reads each finding against the code and withdraws only findings it judges the code contradicts, each listed with its reason. The review is a language model's reading of the findings against the code, and it can be wrong. It never adds a finding, never raises a band, and never removes a finding from a proven check or an advisory that affects the surveyed version.

What a person adds

The survey reads what the repository can show. The code cannot settle these questions, and on them this report states nothing.

  1. This is primarily a TypeScript codebase, with Rust alongside (35% of source files). Does your engineering organisation already run TypeScript in production, or would this be the first? 07.1
  2. The bulk of this system sits in frontend/, backend/, python-client/. Which of your existing systems would each of those have to absorb or replace? 07.10
  3. 68% of lines added in the last 12 months (25% of added lines) came through AI-declared commits. Does your organisation have a policy on inheriting and maintaining that code, and does your engineering team's tooling match how it was produced? 07.9
  4. The repository carries deployment configuration (Dockerfile and 15 more). Does that match your deployment and on-call model, or does it need rehosting first? 07.2
  5. What is your tolerance for the findings above remaining unaddressed for the first two quarters after close, given everything else that will compete for this team's time?
  6. Which of these systems duplicate yours, and which get retired? Answer lives in: Your architecture07.11
  7. What will integration cost, and in what order? Answer lives in: The engagement07.12
  8. Where does the team land in your organisation, and who reports to whom? Answer lives in: Your org design07.13
  9. Are there earn-outs, retention packages or contractor IP to assign? Answer lives in: Deal terms07.14
  10. Do customer contracts limit hosting, regions or vendors? Answer lives in: Customer contracts07.15

A human assessment is Borehole's own paid service, €12,000+ (total price is determined per engagement; travel billed at cost). It is not independent of this report: the same business produced both. It is a separate contract, with its own scope, terms and reliance.

Embed the badge

Tied to this commit and this date, and it fades after 90 days — an honest badge is one that expires. A repository with significant findings gets a neutral "read" badge rather than a red one: the library is where the range is visible, not someone else's README.

BOREHOLE READING NOT A CERTIFICATION 8196-AMW7-4ZKD 2026-10-04 · 7664001 BOREHOLE.DEV/VERIFY

Anyone can check this report against the authoritative record — click the stamp, or enter 8196-AMW7-4ZKD at borehole.dev/verify.

The code commits to the 106 checks this run performed, the bands they produced, and the commit they were read at. It does not cover checks written since.

Put the mark in your README

The image is wrapped in a link to the verification page, so a reader can check it rather than take it on trust. If you embed it: link it to the report, remove it if the report is delisted, and do not present it as a certification or an endorsement.

Borehole reading 8196-AMW7-4ZKD, not a certification

This commit has been surveyed 6 times

A survey is a reading by a particular version of the assessor. Older readings are kept rather than replaced, because a verification mark attests to the survey it was issued for — overwriting one would make every code already in circulation read as tampered.

Where this scan ran

This scan ran on ordinary cloud infrastructure (cloud-run), not in a hardware-isolated confidential VM. Nothing about it is attested by Google.

What an attested survey proves, and what it does not.

What this scan did with the repository — 3 steps

Written by the steps themselves as they ran, not described afterwards. A hand-written account of a data flow drifts the first time somebody changes the flow and not the account.

An automated reading of a repository's code and its history up to one commit, with public advisory records. It may be wrong, it is not legal, financial, investment or security advice, and it does not replace diligence by a qualified person.
