After finding publisher-concentration risk across npm , PyPI , and Cargo , Go was the first ecosystem where the structural pattern didn't appear.
Over the past two weeks I've run behavioral commitment scoring on the most-downloaded packages in npm, PyPI, and Cargo. The pattern was the same every time: a handful of critical packages held by one person, millions of installs per week, one phished credential away from catastrophe.
Then I ran Go.
Zero CRITICAL scores. Not one.
The numbers
I audited 20 popular Go modules using Proof of Commitment . Scores range from 0 to 100 based on behavioral signals: project age, release consistency, contributor depth, GitHub backing, and community traction.
