What this does not tell you

Scores are percentiles of public GitHub signals. Nobody here tested these tools hands-on, so the higher score is not a verdict on which suits your project. Yellow marks the higher value.

Which one fits you

From measured data and licences, not from testing.

Pick LobeHub if

  • You rely on thorough README docs (docs 69 vs 29).

Pick llama.cpp if

  • Recent activity and releases matter most to you (maintenance 83).
  • You want the more widely adopted option (adoption 78).
  • You need a permissive open-source licence (MIT).

Safety side by side

Automated scan, 2 Nov 2026. Not a manual audit.

Why different labels?

A label partly reflects how much of each tool is visible and scannable, not only how risky it is. A tool without a lockfile cannot get a dependency check.

  • LobeHub: 3 critical-severity known vulnerabilities in runtime dependencies (OSV)
  • llama.cpp: 12 critical-severity known vulnerabilities in runtime dependencies (OSV)
