I could not clearly understand what you mean, but here is my
understanding of the build process.
There is a package source that can be downloaded from a publicly
accessible URL (upstream),
There are openwrt patches for that particular package, in
package/foo/patches directory
There are config files (among possibly others) for that particular
package, in package/foo/files directory

When giving out a openwrt-SDK, there may be binaries,
again it follows the same logic given logic above

Unless  upstream ships binary blobs, freedom to demand "show me the
code" is AFAIK satisfied.
