Scored 2026-08-03.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 87/100

- `max_rating` (number): Maximum rating on a 0-100 scale (lower = more dissatisfied users).
- `min_installs` (integer): Minimum active installs.
- `preset` (string): A preset key from list_opportunity_presets (e.g. "abandoned-plugins"). Composes with `tag`.
- `tag` (string): Narrow to a niche by WordPress.org tag/slug, e.g. "seo", "forms", "backup".

### `get_plugin` (~72 tokens)
