Supply chain OSS proof gating validates evidence for scope, ownership, impact, and security to decide if dependency findings meet reportable standards before reporting. It ensures issues have sufficient product impact proof or should be addressed by third-party owners.

You can automate open-source security proof gating by running the create command with a target package, ecosystem, and claim. This generates a markdown packet that lints evidence and determines if the finding is actionable or needs more proof.

You need to validate dependency confusion evidence when you have a security claim affecting release CI pipelines. The proof gate checks if the evidence aligns with real-world implications and OSS rules to determine if the finding is reportable.

Yes, the proof gate evaluates ownership and scope within the supply chain. It determines whether package vulnerability findings have enough impact proof to report internally or should be routed to third-party maintainers instead.

Yes, the process requires the scripts/oss_gate.py script to create and lint evidence packets. This script automates the validation of scope, ownership, impact, and security issues for dependency findings.
