Trust Me Bro

Dependency trust intelligence for modern developers.

VS Code Marketplace Version MIT License


Trust Me Bro is a VS Code extension that continuously monitors your project's dependencies for compromises, vulnerabilities, and supply chain risks — directly inside your editor.

No manual scans. No dashboards. Just ambient trust awareness while you code.

Features

  • Continuous Monitoring — Watches your lockfile for changes and periodically checks advisory databases for new threats against your installed packages.
  • Directional Safety Alerts — Tells you exactly what action to take:
    • SOS Alert — Your installed version is compromised. Act now.
    • Don't Upgrade — You're safe, but a newer version is compromised.
    • Don't Downgrade — You're safe, but an older version is compromised.
  • Transitive Dependency Awareness — Traces risky packages back through the dependency tree so you know which direct dependency introduced the risk.
  • Multi-Lockfile Support — Works with package-lock.json, yarn.lock, and pnpm-lock.yaml.
  • Multi-Root Workspaces — Monitors each workspace root independently.
  • Offline Resilient — Caches advisory data locally. Works offline with stale-but-visible trust state.

How It Works

Trust Me Bro checks your resolved dependencies against OSV.dev and the GitHub Advisory Database to determine the trust state of every package in your project.

Alerts are surfaced through:

  • Status Bar — Always-visible trust summary.
  • Sidebar Panel — Detailed dependency tree with trust states.
  • Toast Notifications — Only for critical SOS alerts when an installed version is actively compromised.

Getting Started

  1. Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace.
  2. Open a project with a lockfile.
  3. Trust Me Bro activates automatically and begins monitoring.

Configuration

Setting Default Description
trustMeBro.pollInterval 30 Advisory check interval in minutes
