Is Gitnexus safe and trustworthy?

tashan scores Gitnexus on public evidence — tashan score 74.0/100, it is currently active, note: a single primary maintainer (bus-factor risk), no known advisories against the current release, it runs a script at install time, its declared dependencies reach: filesystem. Audit scope: OSV advisories, install-time scripts, build provenance and declared permission surface. We do not review source code or execute the capability.

How do I install Gitnexus?

In Claude Code: run `claude mcp add gitnexus -- npx -y gitnexus`. In Cursor / Claude Desktop, add it to mcp.json / claude_desktop_config.json.
