I fired up a 5$ Hetzner server, and then scanned 10k+ wordpress plugins for security issues, errors, warnings etc using .. it took around 5 days to complete..

and this is the result:

https://www.pluginscore.com/

Under the hood, it uses the official Plugin Check (via wp plugin check) and PHP_CodeSniffer with the WordPress standards, plus some extra checks for plugin repo requirements and performance. So its basically the plugin check but with a web interface. There are some false positives in the scan results but it gives an overall picture about a plugin.
