GradeF

Getting noticed, but rough fundamentals could turn visitors away.

Higher than 34% of 5,156 graded repos

AI-powered vulnerability scanner extension for Burp Suite with multi-provider support (Ollama, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini)

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 B (81).

    CI/CD14pt

    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.

  3. 3
    Install and run instructions9pt

    Add a .env.example listing all required environment variables so contributors know what to set up.

  4. 4
    Reproducibility6pt

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

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.
