    How do we believe this tool? Is it secure?

      It’s open source, go find out and report back.

        As far as I recall, Apple does not do reproducible builds or show you the checksum of the built product, so how would one know that the software installed is the software they saw the source for?

          I mean, that sounds a lot more like you're concerned about Apple shipping you insecure software, because it's strictly harder to audit what you have from them compared to what you'd get from this tool.
