Lots of room to improve. Start with a README and CI.
A simple nodejs application for docs
A low grade is a to-do list, not a judgment of your code
Most gaps here are documentation, tests, and setup, not the code itself. Closing your top 3 gaps alone would lift this repo to D (63).

Add automated tests. They prove the code works and give contributors confidence to make changes.
- 2CI/CD14pt
Add `pull_request:` to the workflow `on:` triggers.
- 3CI/CD14pt
Add a lint step to catch style issues automatically.
- 4CI/CD14pt
Add `tsc --noEmit`, `mypy`, or `cargo check` to catch type errors before they merge.
Working through the fixes? Let every push regrade itself.
The free GitHub App rescans this repo on every push and posts the grade as a commit check, so the score climbs without coming back to rescan by hand.
