It is designed to simplify working with multiple crypto libraries by providing a consistent API, reducing the friction of switching between or combining different cryptographic implementations. The package supports Python 3.6 and later and installs as a pure-Python wheel with minimal dependencies.\n\nThe package is in an aging state\u2014last updated 289 days ago with limited repository activity (12 stars, no recent commits beyond the last release). While it has no known security vulnerabilities, the unclear license status and low maintenance signal mean it is best suited for projects that can tolerate minimal upstream support or that need only stable, well-established crypto abstractions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need a lightweight abstraction over pycryptodomex and can verify the license directly from the repository. The low install friction and lack of known vulnerabilities make it a reasonable choice for stable use cases. However, the aging maintenance status and unclear license mean you should confirm license compatibility and accept that upstream support is minimal before adopting it in production."},"id":"unicrypto","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/unicrypto","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/unicrypto.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/unicrypto/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-10-29","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"unicrypto","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Unified interface for cryptographic libraries"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":121563,"position":11977,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.0.12"}
