Accepting New Projects

To be accepted to OSS-Fuzz, an open-source project must have a significant user base and/or be critical to the global IT infrastructure.

To submit a new project, do the following:

1. Create a pull request with a new projects/<project_name>/project.yaml file (example). Note: project_name can only contain alphanumeric characters, underscores(_) or dashes(-).
2. In the file, provide the following information:

• Your project's homepage.
• An email address for the engineering contact to be CCed on new issues, satisfying the following: - The address belongs to an established project committer (according to VCS logs). If the address isn't you, or if the address differs from VCS, we'll require an informal email verification. - The address is associated with a Google account ([why?]({{ site.baseurl }}/faq/#why-do-you-require-a-google-account-for-authentication)). If you use an alternate email address linked to a Google Account, you'll only get access to filed bugs in the issue tracker, not to the [ClusterFuzz]({{ site.baseurl }}/furthur-reading/clusterfuzz) dashboard. This is due to appengine API limitations.

3. Once your project is accepted, configure it by following the [New Project Guide]({{ site.baseurl }}/getting-started/new-project-guide/).
