Anthropic/OpenAI could own this space. They should offer a paid service that offers a mirror with LLM scanned and sandbox-evaluated package with their next gen models. Free for individuals, orgs can subscribe to it.

OpenAI just acquired Astral who have an index service called pyx, so they would have a step up.
