    Not applicable?

    • CI is configured (.github/workflows/python.yml).
    • CI workflow runs tests.
    • CI runs on pull requests, not just on pushes to main.
    • CI does not appear to run a linter (−15 pts).Add a lint step (e.g. `npm run lint`, `ruff check .`, `cargo clippy`) to catch style issues automatically.
    • Optional: add type checking to CI.Add `tsc --noEmit`, `mypy`, or `cargo check` to catch type errors before they merge.
    • CI reports or uploads test coverage.
    • CI tests across multiple environments or versions.
  • Linting and formatting60
    • pyproject.toml configures a Python formatter or linter (ruff/black).
    • No [tool.mypy] in pyproject.toml (−20 pts vs having both ruff and mypy).Install mypy and add a [tool.mypy] section to pyproject.toml for type checking.
  • Reproducibility0
    • No dependency lockfile found (−70 pts).Commit a lockfile (package-lock.json, poetry.lock, uv.lock, etc.) so installs produce the same result everywhere.
    • No Dockerfile or runtime version pin found. Adding one earns +10 pts.Add a Dockerfile, .nvmrc, or .python-version to pin the runtime version and make the environment reproducible.
    • No Dependabot config (adding it earns up to +20 pts).Add .github/dependabot.yml with at least one package-ecosystem entry so dependencies are updated automatically.
  • Issue and PR templates100
