Stewardbench
A repository inventory and policy-drafting workflow that links open-source dependencies, license candidates, ownership and security evidence to qualified CRA role and obligation review.
Organizations distributing or supporting open-source software may need to understand their role, dependencies, licenses, security process and evidence under the European Cyber Resilience Act. Stewardbench inventories repository evidence and drafts a steward policy package, while leaving legal role, license interpretation and regulatory sufficiency to qualified reviewers.
The source confirms an open-source-steward category through a foundation article and reports a September 2026 timing signal, but supplies no current primary statutory text establishing the claimed ninety-day cliff or a universally mandated policy document. Those claims remain disabled until current primary authority and counsel confirm them.
Dependency observation, component identity, license candidate, ownership, vulnerability evidence, legal role, policy draft, reviewer approval, attestation signature, external assessment and regulator outcome remain separate. A signed monthly export supports bounded origin and change detection, not compliance or license clearance.
An open-source program, product-security, legal or engineering-governance leader at an enterprise maintaining or distributing open-source software.
The source cites a 2026 cliff but does not supply enough primary evidence to activate it.
Open-source program, security and legal owners at enterprises are specific and reachable.
The source records one cross-reference, two inbound connections and three direct connections.
The input identifies a newly salient open-source governance role, a clear enterprise buyer and a policy-first evidence workflow not found in two established software-composition competitors.
Current primary CRA timing and policy requirements are absent, license classification needs legal review, established competitors can add role-specific templates, repository onboarding is sensitive and monthly signatures cannot establish compliance.
