OpenSSF BadgeApp Proposal Links

OpenSSF BadgeApp supports proposal links that pre-fill criterion status and justification fields. Use these links only after verifying the evidence in the repository.

Project

• BadgeApp project: https://www.bestpractices.dev/en/projects/13403
• Repository: https://github.com/oaslananka/zaptrace

Workflow

1. Open the BadgeApp project.
2. Submit often to save progress.
3. For each criterion, use docs/openssf-evidence.md as the evidence source.
4. Mark criteria as Met only when repository evidence is public and current.
5. Mark solo-maintainer blockers as Unmet or justify as partial where the criterion permits.
6. Do not mark Gold-only human review or bus-factor criteria as met until independent contributors exist.
