Fresh project. Add a README and CI early.
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 C (72).

Highest-impact changes first, ranked by point weight
- 1Tests18pt
Add automated tests. They prove the code works and give contributors confidence to make changes.
- 2CI/CD14pt
Add a step like `run: npm test`, `run: pytest`, or `run: tox` to your workflow file.
- 3CI/CD14pt
Add `pull_request:` to the workflow `on:` triggers.
- 4CI/CD14pt
Add a lint step to catch style issues automatically.
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.
