🛡️ AgentReady threat assessment
MAESTRO 7-layer threat model + OWASP AIVSS risk score for ChatDev, derived from its capabilities.
These scores are auto-generated from public information (the agent's own listing, docs, and repository) using the canonical OWASP AIVSS formula and the MAESTRO framework — an estimate for guidance, not a penetration test, audit, or certification. See the scoring methodology — every score is re-derived by the same automated method as an agent's public evidence changes.
Overview
ChatDev is an innovative open-source framework that revolutionizes software development by leveraging large language models (LLMs) and multi-agent collaboration. It simulates a virtual software company where AI agents with different roles (e.g., CEO, CTO, programmer) work together to design, code, test, and document software based on natural language descriptions. ChatDev aims to democratize software creation, making it accessible to non-programmers while enhancing efficiency for experienced developers.
