Researchers cannot reliably track or verify when their code deposits are archived in long-term preservation systems

Academics and researchers uploading code to Zenodo face uncertainty about whether their deposits are being properly transferred to Software Heritage for permanent archival, creating anxiety about research reproducibility and citation integrity. Current systems lack transparent status tracking and clear timelines, forcing researchers to manually check multiple platforms or wait indefinitely without confirmation that their work is actually being preserved.
