    • README is well structured with multiple sections.
    • No screenshots or images in the README (−20 pts).Add a GIF, screenshot, or logo image. It is the fastest way to show what your project does.
    • README has no code examples (−15 pts).Show a quick-start snippet so contributors can see what using your project looks like.
    • README links to a live demo or deployed app.
    • README includes status badges.
  • Install and run instructions45
    • No install instructions found in the README (−45 pts).Add a section showing how to install dependencies.
    • README documents how to run the project.
    • No .env.example found (−10 pts).Add a .env.example listing all required environment variables so contributors know what to set up.
  • License100
    • Licensed under Apache-2.0.
  • Contributing guide25
    • Contributing guidance is in the README, not a dedicated CONTRIBUTING.md (−20 pts).Moving it to a CONTRIBUTING.md makes it easier to find and keeps the README focused. A dedicated file earns +47 pts base.
    • Optional: add a Code of Conduct.A CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md signals that your project is welcoming. GitHub has a template you can add in one click.

    • CI is configured (.github/workflows/ci.yml).
    • CI workflow runs tests.
    • CI runs on pull requests, not just on pushes to main.
    • CI workflow runs a lint or format check.
    • 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 formatting100
    • Rust linting configured (cargo clippy in CI, cargo fmt in CI).
  • Reproducibility62
    • No Cargo.lock committed (correct for Rust library crates; the ecosystem convention is to omit it for libraries).
    • Rust library crate without Cargo.lock (−20 pts vs. a lockfile). Partial credit awarded since omitting it is the Cargo convention for libraries.If this crate also ships a binary, commit Cargo.lock. For pure library crates, omitting it is recommended per the Cargo guide.
    • 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.
    • Dependabot configured for cargo.
    • Dependabot only covers one ecosystem (−8 pts). Covering 2+ ecosystems earns the full +20 pts.Add additional package-ecosystem entries (especially github-actions) to keep all dependencies current.
  • Issue and PR templates100
    • Issue or PR templates present.
    • Security policy present.
