Tests18pt0

No tests detected anywhere in the repository.

Add automated tests. They prove the code works and give contributors confidence to make changes.

No CI configuration detected in this repository.

If your CI lives elsewhere (a private repo that builds this one) or this project is itself a CI/CD tool, mark this check Not Applicable. Otherwise add a GitHub Actions workflow that runs tests on each push. It takes 15 minutes and reassures contributors their changes won't break things.

Linting and formatting5pt0

No linter or formatter config found.

Add a linter config such as .eslintrc.json, .prettierrc, ruff.toml, or .golangci.yml to enforce consistent code style.

Reproducibility6pt0

No dependency lockfile found (−70 pts).

Commit the lockfile for this project's package manager so installs produce the same dependency versions everywhere.

Issue and PR templates6pt0

No issue or PR templates found (−100 pts).

Add .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ with bug_report.md and feature_request.md to guide contributors. It dramatically improves issue quality.
