FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a comprehensive codebase review to identify architectural risks?

A comprehensive codebase review identifies architectural risks by applying a breadth-first sampling approach to representative files across architecture, data, business logic, security, and tests, producing actionable insights and a prioritized remediation plan.

What is a codebase health assessment and when do I need one?

A codebase health assessment is a structured evaluation that scores your repository across 10 quality dimensions to identify risks and improvement opportunities. You need one following major updates to deliver a structured improvement roadmap.

How do I generate a codebase remediation plan with effort estimates?

To generate a codebase remediation plan, you provide a repository URL and the review process scores 10 dimensions of the codebase against a consistent rubric, delivering an actionable top-10 improvement plan with estimated effort and responsible owners.

Can I use an automated code review to evaluate business logic and security?

Yes, an automated code review evaluates business logic and security by sampling representative files across these specific dimensions. It applies a consistent rubric to quantify quality scores and identify targeted improvement opportunities.

Does this architecture risk analysis work for evaluating test coverage?

Yes, architecture risk analysis evaluates test coverage by sampling representative test files as part of its breadth-first approach. It scores the testing dimension against a consistent rubric to produce actionable insights for your remediation plan.

What is the best way to assess codebase quality after a major update?

The best way to assess codebase quality after a major update is a phase-oriented review that orients, samples, and evaluates across architecture, data, business logic, security, and tests to produce quantified quality scores and a prioritized roadmap.
