Nothing significant. Questions worth asking about Engineering Process & SDLC Maturity, Security & Reliability Posture.

104 checks ran across 6 assessable dimensions. None found a significant problem; 3 raised something worth a question. 6 findings, each with evidence. One dimension cannot be assessed without an acquirer.

Published under today's rules. The verification code attests to this reading as it was stored. This page differs from it as follows.
  • 1 finding from checks Borehole's calibration found wrong more often than right is no longer published.
  • 1 finding about one contributor is withheld: one author wrote nearly all of this repository's commits; a buyer of this report reads them.

0% of the code standing today was written in AI-declared commits
0% of lines still in the tree 0 of 54,194 0% of lines ever added these differ when early hand-written code has since been replaced
0% of lines added in the last 12 months (since 2025-10-04) arrived in AI-declared commits: 0/267 commits, confidence low. Also a floor.
0/3,056 commits declaring an agent
confidence: low
  • 12% of non-merge commits carry any trailer at all
  • low trailer coverage: the convention may not be in consistent use
  • 40% of commits show author/committer date divergence, which is the shape of replayed history that can drop trailers
  • deep scan blamed 371 of 371 counted files
This is a lower bound. It counts what the repository declares. Undeclared AI authorship is invisible here, and a single rebase removes the trailers this rests on. Absence of a declaration is absence of disclosure, not absence of AI authorship.

app/src/cli.c is 3,592 lines, 49× this codebase's median file

adequate

The median source file here is 73 lines. 5 files exceed 1,000 lines, the largest being 3,592. Size is not a defect on its own — some problems genuinely live in one place — but these are where merge conflicts, review fatigue and single-owner knowledge concentrate, and they are the first thing that slows an inheriting engineer down.

A note that does not affect this rating: measured against its own codebase's median, it is below the 85th percentile of 382 surveyed projects' largest files, where this check begins to count.

Tests cover a thin slice of the codebase

adequate

21 test files against 302 source files (7.0%). 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.

02.6

Almost no process scaffolding exists in the repository

adequate

Of 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.

A note that does not affect this rating: in Borehole's calibration, this check's notes were usually true but overstated.

Security & Reliability Posture

05.2

None of the standard security guard rails are configured

adequate

There is no disclosure policy, no automated dependency updates, no named code owners and no pre-commit configuration. None of these is load-bearing on its own. Their collective absence says that security posture here is whatever the current team happens to remember to do, which is not a posture that survives the team changing.

9 vendored components with no licence

adequate

Third-party code is committed into this repository without any statement of the terms it arrived under. Unknown terms are harder to deal with than inconvenient ones: an awkward licence can be complied with, an absent one cannot. Each of these needs its origin established before the code changes hands.

07 · not assessable · ratings ↑

Not rated: structurally not assessable from a repository. What a person adds here.

Check it on the running system

3 checks against the running system follow from the findings above: what a buyer's engineer will try, how to run it first, and what to have ready. A paid survey of this repository includes them. See the tiers.

A paid survey of a public repository is also reviewed: a language model reads each finding against the code and withdraws only findings it judges the code contradicts, each listed with its reason. The review is a language model's reading of the findings against the code, and it can be wrong. It never adds a finding, never raises a band, and never removes a finding from a proven check or an advisory that affects the surveyed version.

What a person adds

The survey reads what the repository can show. The code cannot settle these questions, and on them this report states nothing. Each says where its answer lives: your own engineer, the company, or an assessor you choose can settle it. Questions marked measured open with something this repository shows.

Architecture & Codebase — including AI provenance

01 · full coverage
  1. measured No architecture or design document is in the tree, across 324 product files. Where does the design live, and who holds it? Answer lives in: The team01.38

  3. How are incidents run, reviewed and learned from? Answer lives in: Tickets, chat and postmortems02.37

Organization & Key-Person Risk

03 · partial coverage

Not rated: one author wrote nearly all of this repository's commits, so a finding about one contributor would be about someone its history all but names; the public report does not carry those, and does not rate this dimension without them.

  1. Which of the people who wrote this are part of the transaction, and for how long after it? Answer lives in: The deal terms03.29

Fit with the Acquirer

07 · none coverage

Not rated: structurally not assessable from a repository.

  1. This is primarily a C codebase, with Java alongside (35% of source files). Does your engineering organisation already run C in production, or would this be the first? 07.1
  2. The bulk of this system sits in app/, server/, release/. Which of your existing systems would each of those have to absorb or replace? 07.10
  3. Nothing in the repository says how this is deployed. Is it shipped as a library, a binary or a service, and if it runs somewhere, who owns that environment? 07.2
  4. What is your tolerance for the findings above remaining unaddressed for the first two quarters after close, given everything else that will compete for this team's time?
  5. Which of these systems duplicate yours, and which get retired? Answer lives in: Your architecture07.11
  6. What will integration cost, and in what order? Answer lives in: The engagement07.12
  7. Where does the team land in your organisation, and who reports to whom? Answer lives in: Your org design07.13
  8. Are there earn-outs, retention packages or contractor IP to assign? Answer lives in: Deal terms07.14
  9. Do customer contracts limit hosting, regions or vendors? Answer lives in: Customer contracts07.15

A human assessment is Borehole's own paid service, €12,000+ (total price is determined per engagement; travel billed at cost). It is not independent of this report: the same business produced both. It is a separate contract, with its own scope, terms and reliance.

Embed the badge

Tied to this commit and this date, and it fades after 90 days — an honest badge is one that expires. A repository with significant findings gets a neutral "read" badge rather than a red one: the library is where the range is visible, not someone else's README.

Anyone can check this report against the authoritative record — click the stamp, or enter PSCP-T1MH-C7CT at borehole.dev/verify.

The code commits to the 106 checks this run performed, the bands they produced, and the commit they were read at. It does not cover checks written since.

Borehole reading PSCP-T1MH-C7CT, not a certification

This commit has been surveyed 5 times

A survey is a reading by a particular version of the assessor. Older readings are kept rather than replaced, because a verification mark attests to the survey it was issued for — overwriting one would make every code already in circulation read as tampered.

Where this scan ran

This scan ran on ordinary cloud infrastructure (cloud-run), not in a hardware-isolated confidential VM. Nothing about it is attested by Google.

What an attested survey proves, and what it does not.

What this scan did with the repository — 3 steps

Written by the steps themselves as they ran, not described afterwards. A hand-written account of a data flow drifts the first time somebody changes the flow and not the account.
