Description
Codex for Open Source grants six months of ChatGPT Pro plus API credits to core maintainers of widely used public projects. Claude for Open Source grants six months of Claude Ultra on criteria such as 200,000 monthly downloads across registries or an OpenSSF criticality score of 0.4 or more. Measured on 2026-11-02 (pypistats, last month): btclib 11,999 downloads, btclib-secp256k1 27,017, btclib-node 943.
Apply to Codex for Open Source; compute the OpenSSF criticality score of btclib and apply to Claude for Open Source if any criterion is met. Record both answers here.

Claimed by a session on 2026-11-02 (fametrano): the OpenSSF criticality measurement and the two application texts, which the maintainer submits.

Claude for Open Source is within reach on two of its criteria, measured on 2026-11-02. The maintainer has 619 pull requests merged outside btclib-org and his own account in the last twelve months (
gh api -X GET search/issues -f q='is:pr is:merged author:fametrano -org:btclib-org -user:fametrano merged:>=2025-11-02' --jq .total_count), against a criterion of 100. btclib has 25 human contributors other than the maintainer, all-time (gh api repos/btclib-org/btclib/contributors --paginate, type User), against a criterion of 20; whether the programme counts them over a year is unverified. The downloads criterion is not met: btclib had 11,999 and btclib-secp256k1 27,017 last month on pypistats, against 200,000.The OpenSSF criticality score could not be measured. The published dataset's bucket refuses downloads (its project's billing is disabled), and running the scorer locally was not authorized in this session. Codex for Open Source asks for a core maintainer of a widely used public project, a judgement its reviewers make. Both applications are forms the maintainer submits: https://claude.com/contact-sales/claude-for-oss and https://openai.com/form/codex-for-oss/.

Decision, 2026-11-09: the applications stay on hold. The Codex credits are paid by the maintainer, and Claude for Open Source's threshold is not met (86 outside pull requests against 100). They are taken up again when that count reaches 100.
