I built a free tool that scores any GitHub repo for architectural health - looking for beta feedback
A few weeks ago I got burned inheriting a project that looked fine on the surface: decent test coverage, clean README, active commits. Three weeks in I found the actual architecture was a tower of hidden coupling - god objects, circular deps, and an ORM layer used as a global variable dispenser.
The frustrating part: all the signals were visible in the repo structure from day one. Nobody had a fast way to read them.
So I built the tool I wish I had. You paste a public GitHub URL, no login required, and it returns a scored architectural health report in under a minute: dependency layering, module cohesion, complexity hotspots, and a plain-language explanation of each finding.
Two design decisions I'd genuinely love beta feedback on:
-
Fully static analysis, no build execution. Safer and faster, but I know I'm blind to runtime behavior. For a due-diligence pass, is that trade-off acceptable to you?
-
Every finding must cite concrete evidence - file paths, import graphs - not a vague score. I made this non-negotiable after one hallucinated explanation early in testing.
Looking for beta users to run it against repos you actually work on and tell me what it misses. Link in the comments.
