Calculation Methodology:

• Test Coverage (30%): Based on test-to-source ratio (max at 3.0:1)
• Code Organization (25%): Based on average file size (penalty for large files)
• Documentation (20%): Based on code-to-docs ratio (lower is better)
• Churn Stability (15%): Based on files modified in 7 days (lower is better)
• Comment Density (10%): Based on comment ratio (max at 10%)

💡 Insights & Recommendations

1. Improve Documentation Coverage: Current code-to-docs ratio of 26.1:1 is high. Target 10-15:1 by expanding inline documentation and architectural guides. Consider documenting complex workflows and pkg modules more thoroughly.

2. Manage Code Churn: With 2,035 files modified in 7 days, consider stabilizing frequently-changed workflow files. Implement change batching strategies to reduce constant workflow regeneration.

3. Maintain Test Excellence: Continue the exceptional 2.49:1 test-to-source ratio. This is a key strength of the repository and should be preserved as the codebase grows.

4. Monitor Large Files: 171 files exceed 500 LOC. Review these for potential refactoring opportunities, especially test files and workflow schemas that could benefit from modularization.

5. Optimize Workflow Automation: With 89.8% of workflows compiled to .lock.yml files, ensure the compilation process is efficient. Consider workflow deduplication strategies for similar patterns.
