Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
Beagle Security
Connects with the Beagle Security backend using a user token to manage applications, run automated security tests, track vulnerabilities across environments, and gain intelligence from Application and API vulnerability data.
gh-guard
GH-Guard hardens CI/CD pipelines for Rust projects. It generates production-tested GitHub Actions workflows with SHA-pinned actions, OIDC-based Trusted Publishing, SLSA L3 provenance, and layered dependency auditing via cargo-deny, Dependabot, and osv-scanner. Five commands: /audit scans your repo against supply chain best practices, /harden walks you through fixes at three levels (Minimal/Standard/Hardened), /generate creates individual config files, /check-updates catches stale SHA pins, and /verify validates everything before you push. 14 skills provide deep context on Scorecard checks, dangerous workflow patterns, release automation, workspace publishing, fuzz testing, and compromised action incident response. All guidance is informed by real-world incidents including the March 2026 Trivy tag hijacking.
