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.

Environment config

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.

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 14/20 B+

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

✓Deterministic install 6/6

bun.lock pins the dependency tree.

Found bun.lock

✓Discoverable commands 6/6

Commands are declared where an agent will look for them.

package.json scripts (dev, dev:web, dev:landing, dev:server, setup:dev, build…)

justfile

scripts/ directory

✗Environment config 0/4

Nothing documents the environment this needs. An agent will get a runtime error it can't diagnose.

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 20/25 A-

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

✗Tests exist 6/8

35 test files against 416 source files.

e.g. backend/tests/E2E_MODEL_TEST_DESIGN.md, backend/tests/README.md, backend/tests/__init__.py

✓Test command is discoverable 7/7

An agent can find and run `npm run check`.

✓Continuous integration 4/4

3 GitHub Actions workflows define what "passing" means.

✓Lint and format rules 3/3

biome.json encodes the house style.

✗Static type checking 0/3

No static type checking.

A type checker gives an agent an error message instead of a runtime surprise. It's the second-fastest feedback loop after the compiler.

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 51 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 96.9MB 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 jamiepine/voicebox

# AGENTS.md

The open-source AI voice studio. Clone, dictate, create.

## Setup

```
bun install
```

## Commands

```
bun dev           # run locally
bun build         # produce a build
bun typecheck     # type check without emitting
bun lint          # lint
bun format        # format
bun check         # lint and type check
bun dev:web
bun dev:landing
```

## Layout

- `app/`     177 source files
- `backend/` 120 source files
- `landing/` 54 source files
- `tauri/`   26 source files
- `docs/`    21 source files
- `scripts/` 10 source files

## Conventions

- Tests live alongside the code they cover, following `backend/tests/E2E_MODEL_TEST_DESIGN.md`.
- CI defines what passing means. See `.github/workflows/build-windows.yml`, 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.
