Is LangGraph safe?

Short answer: No issues found. StackGrade's weekly scan of langchain-ai/langgraph found no issues: no critical-severity dependency advisories, no downloading install hooks, no remote-code patterns and no risky agent instruction files. It does list 5 high-severity advisories in runtime dependencies, which don't change the label. Automated scan of commit ee3c043 on 2 Nov 2026, not a manual audit.
