Higher is better. Accent marks what is costing you most.

Fix these first

Agent instruction file

Add an AGENTS.md at the root: what the project is, how to install, how to run, how to test, and the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong.

Instruction quality

Instructions earn their keep by naming exact commands. 'Run the tests with `pnpm test`' beats three paragraphs of philosophy.

Tests exist

This is the single highest-leverage change on this page. Agents don't need full coverage, they need one command that goes red when they break something. Even a handful of tests on the core path converts blind editing into a feedback loop.

The full marking

Every deduction below names the file or setting it came from.

Instructions 3/27 F

Whether the repo tells an agent how to behave before it starts guessing.

✗Agent instruction file 0/12

None found. Every agent that opens this repo starts from zero.

Add an AGENTS.md at the root: what the project is, how to install, how to run, how to test, and the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong.

Looked for AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .cursorrules

✗Instruction quality 0/12

Nothing to judge, since there are no instructions.

Instructions earn their keep by naming exact commands. 'Run the tests with `pnpm test`' beats three paragraphs of philosophy.

✓README as an entry point 3/3

README has a clear getting-started section.

Setup 16/20 A-

Whether an agent can install the project and get it running without a human.

✓Deterministic install 6/6

yarn.lock pins the dependency tree.

Found yarn.lock

✓Discoverable commands 6/6

Commands are declared where an agent will look for them.

package.json scripts (dev, build, start, lint, format:write)

✗Environment config 2/4

Env vars are mentioned in the README but there's no example file to copy.

Add a .env.example listing every variable with a safe placeholder value. It's the cheapest possible fix and it unblocks the whole first run.

✗Pinned runtime version 0/2

No pinned runtime version.

Add a .nvmrc, .python-version, or equivalent so the agent's toolchain matches yours.

✓Reproducible environment 2/2

dockerfile gives a known-good environment.

Verification loop 10/25 C

Whether an agent can check its own work. This is the category that most decides whether agent output is trustworthy.

✗Tests exist 0/8

No test files found. An agent has no way to know whether its change broke anything.

✗Test command is discoverable 0/7

There's no obvious way to run the tests. Even if tests exist, an agent won't reliably find the entry point.

Add a `test` script or a `test` target that runs the whole suite with no arguments. The convention is the interface — an agent tries `npm test` and `make test` before it tries reading your CI config.

✓Continuous integration 4/4

1 GitHub Actions workflow define what "passing" means.

✓Lint and format rules 3/3

.eslintrc.json encodes the house style.

✓Static type checking 3/3

Strict type checking is on, which catches a whole class of agent mistakes before they run.

Context economy 19/20 A+

Whether the repo fits in a context window, or fights it.

✓No committed build output 6/6

No generated directories committed.

✓.gitignore hygiene 3/3

.gitignore covers 23 patterns.

✓File sizes fit in context 6/6

No source file is large enough to crowd out a context window.

✗Repository weight 4/5

About 113.1MB checked out, which is comfortable.

Here is your AGENTS.md

Drafted from what is actually in this repository: the install command from your lockfile, the commands you already declare, your real directory layout. Anything marked TODO needs a person. Save it at the root as AGENTS.md.

AGENTS.md — drafted for ItzCrazyKns/Vane

# AGENTS.md

Vane is an AI-powered answering engine.

## Setup

```
yarn install
```

## Commands

```
yarn dev            # run locally
yarn start          # run the app
yarn build          # produce a build
yarn lint           # lint
yarn format:write
```

## Layout

- `src/`     158 source files
- `drizzle/` 3 source files

## Conventions

- There are no tests yet. An agent has no way to check its own work here.
- TypeScript runs in strict mode. Type errors are the fastest feedback available, so do not weaken it.
- CI defines what passing means. See `.github/workflows/docker-build.yaml`, and keep it green.
- TODO: add the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong here.

Think this mark is wrong?

Every deduction above names the file it came from, so this can be settled by looking. If a check missed something, that is a rule worth fixing.
