Conversation
DataSquad students are increasingly hired as OSPO assistants, starting on the software-curation side (licensing, citation, security posture) and capable of more given CS backgrounds. Adds the tools that are genuinely brew-installable CLI utilities, not GitHub-hosted features or frameworks: - pre-commit: multi-language git hook manager, the clearest omission - copier: template scaffolding/reapplication for new repos - reuse: SPDX license/copyright compliance (`reuse lint`) - osv-scanner: lockfile/manifest vulnerability scanning - zizmor: static analysis for GitHub Actions/Dependabot configs - scorecard: OpenSSF Scorecard, runs locally not just as a CI action Deliberately left out (not brew-installable, or better suited to DataSquad's own OSPO-assistant documentation rather than a universal laptop install): howfairis (pip/pipx only), ScanCode Toolkit (heavier staff-audit tool), CodeMeta/codemetapy (metadata generator, not brew-packaged), CFFInit (web tool), and the GitHub-hosted-feature layer (Dependabot, secret scanning, rulesets, Scorecard-as-Action) which is repo configuration, not a laptop package.

Summary
DataSquad students are increasingly hired as OSPO assistants — starting on the software-curation side of open source program office work (licensing, citation, security posture), with room to grow given CS backgrounds. This adds the tools from that review that are genuinely brew-installable CLI utilities, not GitHub-hosted features or frameworks:
pre-commit— multi-language git hook manager, the clearest omission from the prior listcopier— template scaffolding/reapplication for new reposreuse— SPDX license/copyright compliance (reuse lint)osv-scanner— lockfile/manifest vulnerability scanningzizmor— static analysis for GitHub Actions/Dependabot configsscorecard— OpenSSF Scorecard, runs locally not just as a CI actionDeliberately left out (not brew-installable, or better suited to DataSquad's own OSPO-assistant documentation rather than a universal laptop install):
howfairis(pip/pipx only), ScanCode Toolkit (heavier staff-audit tool), CodeMeta/codemetapy(metadata generator, not brew-packaged), CFFInit (web tool), and the GitHub-hosted-feature layer (Dependabot, secret scanning, rulesets, Scorecard-as-Action) — that's repo configuration, not a laptop package.Also fixed a real bug caught by
shellcheckduring this change: a comment containing backticks inside the unquoted<<EOFheredoc would have triggered actual shell command substitution when the script runs, not just been inert text.Test plan
brew bundle check— no unknown formula/cask errorsshellcheck -s sh mac— no new warnings beyond pre-existing ones (caught and fixed a real backtick/heredoc issue in review)
