health-controller-stub-detector

Detect hard-coded stub literals in health controller implementations by diff-scanning added lines for placeholder patterns like pending-integration or not-implemented, then requiring an operator disposition to implement, defer, or document the gap.

QA gates pass on placeholder health status values because standard checks treat stub literals as valid readiness evidence without verifying real wire-up, creating false confidence that downstream compliance checks need to catch early.

Prevent stub health indicators from being treated as real readiness evidence by scanning diff-added lines for known placeholder patterns in liveness and readiness files, forcing explicit operator disposition before gating proceeds.

An operator disposition workflow for health controller contract gaps requires choosing to implement the fix now, defer with explicit TODO or backlog evidence, or document the status check as explicitly out-of-scope.

Health stub detection works across different tech stacks by scanning role-named health, status, liveness, and readiness controller files for placeholder literals in added diff lines regardless of the implementation language.

Scan health controller diffs for placeholder literals during implementation changes that touch health, status, liveness, or readiness indicators to surface contract gaps before automated wish gating treats stubs as real wire-up proof.
