Publisher unconfirmed: the evidence below is shown but not counted in the governance score, because nothing yet ties this listing to Anthropic beyond repository or Hub account ownership. A vendor-domain page, marketplace listing, ARD manifest or A2A card would confirm it.

Evidence available — not a safety certification. Suitability depends on your task, deployment and permissions. Rows marked vendor-level describe Anthropic, not this agent specifically.

"Unknown" means nothing was found in the sources checked — registries, marketplaces and the vendor's own pages. It is not a finding of non-compliance; ask the vendor.

Before you deploy

Deployment questions answered from the vendor's documentation, each with its source.

✔Reads private repositories? Yes — Runs in the project directory on your machine; file tools are bounded to that folder in Manual mode source
✔Executes code or writes changes? Yes — "Manual mode: Claude Code starts with read-only permissions. When it needs to edit files, run tests, or execute commands, it asks you first" source
◐Credential handling documented? Configurable — "API keys and tokens are stored in the macOS Keychain when available"; sandboxed bash with filesystem and network isolation; in cloud sessions "GitHub credentials ... never enter the session VM" source
✔Can run entirely on your own machine or infrastructure? Yes — Local terminal process; optional sandbox runtime or dev container; cloud sessions can be routed to a self-hosted environment source
◐Human approval before consequential actions? Configurable — Manual mode asks before edits and commands; Auto mode delegates to a classifier; Accept Edits mode auto-approves edits. "You're responsible for reviewing proposed code and commands for safety before approval" source

Unknowns to check (4)
Your lawful basis and DPIA for PHI and personal data the agent will touch
The transfer mechanism you will rely on; DPF covers EU-to-US transfers only
Ask the vendor for SOC 2, ISO 27001, CSA STAR evidence; none was found in the sources checked
Whether the agent exposes MCP or A2A endpoints; none were observed
Suggested restrictions for a pilot (3)
Limit the pilot to one non-production repository with a protected default branch; let the agent push to one branch only.
Ask for the SOC 2 report under NDA before the pilot touches customer data; none was found in the sources checked.
A public trace shows data leaving the environment under adversarial input. Confirm the vendor's fix is in the version you deploy, and keep an egress allowlist around the agent during the pilot.
