Popular for its size, but the engineering basics lag behind the interest.
My home operations repository using k8s/gitops
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 (78).

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 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.
