### Autonomous Evaluation Report: sniffnet
**Category:** monitoring-status | **Self-Host Difficulty:** Easy | **Safety Score:** 93/100 (HEALTHY)
#### 1. Architecture & Maintenance Cadence sniffnet is an active open-source software project tracked under `GyulyVGC/sniffnet`. Maintenance telemetry scores 94/100 and community trust scores 90/100 based on repository activity and contributor adoption. The codebase is distributed under the `Apache-2.0` open-source license.
#### 2. Security Health & Supply-Chain Signals Security health is rated at 96/100 based on licensing compliance, commit hygiene, and issue response indicators. Release cadence discipline is evaluated at 86/100.
#### 3. Key Observations & Operational Risk - **Clean:** No critical unpatched vulnerabilities, dormant maintainers, or restrictive licensing flags detected.
#### 4. Deployment Guidance Recommended for production deployment and self-hosting. Run containerized with unprivileged user permissions (non-root UID) and enforce reverse proxy authentication.
