It wraps cryptography and Oslo libraries to provide signature verification tailored to OpenStack's security model and certificate handling practices.\n\nThe package is intended for OpenStack operators, integrators, and developers who need to verify signatures on OpenStack artifacts, configurations, or communications. It requires Python 3.11+ and depends on the Oslo middleware suite (serialization, utilities, internationalization, logging) plus castellan for key management. The project is actively maintained and has no known vulnerabilities.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building or operating OpenStack infrastructure and need standardized signature validation. The library is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive license, and integrates cleanly with the Oslo ecosystem. Not relevant for non-OpenStack projects."},"id":"cursive","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cursive","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cursive.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/cursive/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-06","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"cursive","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Cursive implements OpenStack-specific validation of digital signatures."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":101172,"position":12959,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.0"}
