    "detail": "Positioned as a free, opt-in service modeled on Google OSS-Fuzz, OSS Scanner uses Anthropic's Claude Mythos models to surface and help fix critical and high-severity issues in open-source repos. Its competitive angle is automated, model-driven findings with reproducible artifacts and suggested patches, though reports are unreviewed by humans so buyers should plan for false positives and validation workflows. Sales relevance: security teams, platform engineering, and companies that rely on open-source can adopt or integrate this to降低 risk and augment internal scanning, or offer complementary human triage services.",

Maintainers enroll with a pull request. Each report comes with a reproducer, an explanation, and a candidate patch when available. In an early validation, 85 of 97 critical and high findings (88%) met the disclosure bar. Reports get no human review, so some may be wrong. Modeled on Google OSS-Fuzz.",
