Description

A new section of the README should be added to document provenance status. It should include links to the source commit, build workflow and sigstore log entry. Doing so will improve security posture against supply chain attacks and align ourselves with modern security best practices.

Ideally, we create an automation that runs after a successful release to update these values automatically

Example:

Provenance (SLSA)

Built and published from GitHub Actions with npm provenance.

Research direction

Start with the README and the release automation that runs after a successful release. Trace how the source commit, GitHub Actions workflow run, and Sigstore Transparency Log entry are exposed, then define how those links should be inserted into the Provenance section. Done means the README shows current provenance links after releases.
