Automated excerpt
Every plugin listing in the official EmDash plugin registry is now screened by Cloudflare's Clef decision model before it can appear in the catalog. Clef reviews the listing metadata, outbound links, icon, and screenshots for phishing, impersonation, offensive content, scams, and attempts to manipulate the moderation system. The registry is built on AT Protocol, so plugin authors publish signed releases from their own accounts. Clef also passed all 37 plugin profiles and all 43 listing images that were live in the registry when we ran the evaluation.
