ant-design/ant-design-pro: technical due diligence, read from its repository
What Borehole read in ant-design/ant-design-pro's code and history at 5250648: its licence, security advisories, releases, review practice, tests, dependencies and operations. Every finding cites the file and line it rests on. The full report also covers the team and asks the questions the code cannot answer.

Architecture & Codebase — including AI provenance
strongNo finding.
Engineering Process & SDLC Maturity
adequateTests cover a thin slice of the codebase
adequate24 test files against 276 source files (8.7%). This does not measure whether the tests are good, only whether enough of them exist for the codebase to be changed safely by someone who did not write it — which is exactly the situation after an acquisition.
| 24 test files / 276 source files |
Almost no process scaffolding exists in the repository
adequateOf five ordinary markers — CI workflows, CODEOWNERS, a pull-request template, pre-commit hooks, contribution guidance — 1 is present: CI workflows. Branch protection itself is a GitHub setting rather than a file, so this is a reading of proxies and not of the rules themselves. What it does establish is that the process is not written down anywhere a new engineer would find it.

Product & Engineering Maturity
adequateEffort is shifting from building to rewriting
adequateDeleted lines per line added rose from 0.73 to 1.60 between the first and second halves of this history. Rework is normal and often healthy, but a rising ratio means an increasing share of the team's time is spent replacing code that already exists rather than building what does not. Whether that is deliberate repayment or churn is a question for the team.
| first half 0.73, second half 1.60 (split 2022-03-26) |
17% of bug fixes add or change a test
adequateOf 76 fixes in the last 24 months, 13 touched a test. A fix without the test that would have caught the bug can quietly come back, and the suite never learns from what went wrong.

Security & Reliability Posture
adequate2 locked dependencies have published vulnerabilities, 2 high or critical in what ships
adequate2 of 351 locked dependencies match 4 published advisories in OSV, 2 of them rated high or critical. A lockfile says which version is installed, not whether the flawed code is reachable from this product, so each needs a look. Most are fixed by an upgrade, and the advisory names the version.
package-lock.json — dompurify 3.4.16: GHSA-cg2g-xh64-v4q7 (critical), fixed in 3.4.17 |
package-lock.json — katex 0.16.47: GHSA-238p-pmpm-9mq7 (low), fixed in 0.18.2 |
Observability & Operations
not assessableNot rated: only 5 of 16 checks could reach a conclusion here; the rest do not apply to this repository or could not read it.
