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

Fix these first

Instruction quality

Worth fixing: has no code blocks.

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.

The full marking

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

Instructions 25/27 A+

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

✓Agent instruction file 12/12

AGENTS.md is present, which is the format the most tools read.

Also found: CLAUDE.md

✗Instruction quality 10/12

Specific enough that an agent can act on it.

Worth fixing: has no code blocks.

3,037 characters, a workable length

names the actual commands to run

uses headings, so an agent can skim it

✓README as an entry point 3/3

README has a clear getting-started section.

Setup 20/20 A+

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

✓Deterministic install 6/6

uv.lock pins the dependency tree.

Found uv.lock

✓Discoverable commands 6/6

Commands are declared where an agent will look for them.

Makefile

scripts/ directory

✓Environment config 4/4

.env.example documents what the app needs to run.

✓Pinned runtime version 2/2

The language runtime version is pinned.

Found .python-version

✓Reproducible environment 2/2

dockerfile gives a known-good environment.

Verification loop 24/25 A+

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

✓Tests exist 8/8

75 test files against 379 source files.

e.g. frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/notebooks/components/ChatColumn.test.tsx, frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/notebooks/components/NoteEditorDialog.test.tsx, frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/settings/api-keys/page.test.tsx

✓Test command is discoverable 7/7

An agent can find and run `pytest`.

✓Continuous integration 4/4

4 GitHub Actions workflows define what "passing" means.

✓Lint and format rules 3/3

pyproject.toml encodes the house style.

✗Static type checking 2/3

Type checking is configured, but not in strict mode.

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 20/20 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 95 patterns.

✓File sizes fit in context 6/6

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

✓Repository weight 5/5

About 21.7MB 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.

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.
