How we evaluate,
published in full
5 methods for judging a FiveM resource — evaluation, server authority, economy integrity, security review and runtime testing. Each states what it measures, what it explicitly does not, and how to reproduce it. They are written so you can point them at us, which is the only reason publishing them costs us anything.
Every page carries a “where we actually stand” section. Today that section says we would fail our own runtime criterion: no runtime proof is published for any product, pending the Shadow bench. Publishing the bar before clearing it is the point — a standard you only announce after you meet it is a press release.
The FiveM Script Evaluation Methodology

The Proof Center carries the current status of every product against these methods. The tools make parts of them runnable in a browser, and the guides explain the reasoning behind each criterion.
