repository-readiness-eval

repository-readiness-eval is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from fabioc-aloha/Alex_Skill_Mall. It costs 59 tokens per session (2,347 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository health assessment for AI-assisted development. It checks whether the codebase can be understood, dependencies restored, code built, and tests run.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when joining an unfamiliar repository, checking whether continuous integration (automated build and test checks) is ready, or measuring progress after fixes.
Why use it?
It reveals setup and quality problems that can slow down an AI coding agent or prevent it from making reliable changes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

repository-readiness-eval scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Repository Readiness Evaluation

Systematic 4-axis assessment of whether a repository is ready for productive AI-assisted development — from code comprehension through successful test execution.

When to Use

  • Onboarding to an unfamiliar repository
  • Assessing if a codebase is AI-agent-ready
  • Validating CI/CD pipeline health
  • Pre-engagement quality check before committing to a project
  • Measuring improvement after fixing build/test issues

The 4 Axes

Axis Question Score Range
A: Code Understanding Can you comprehend the project structure, tech stack, and architecture? 0–5
B: Dependency Restore Can you install/restore all dependencies successfully? 0–5
C: Build Success Does the project compile/build without errors? 0–5
D: Test Execution Do tests run and pass? 0–5

Total: 0–20 points → Tier classification (below)


Phase 1: Code Understanding (Axis A)

Investigation Steps

  1. Read README — does it explain setup, architecture, and conventions?
  2. Identify tech stack — languages, frameworks, build system, package manager
  3. Map project structure — entry points, module boundaries, config files
  4. Find build/run commands — documented or discoverable from manifests
  5. Identify test framework — what runs tests, where are they located

Scoring Rubric

Score Criteria
5 Clear docs, standard structure, obvious entry points, well-organized
4 Minor gaps but navigable — missing some docs, non-standard naming
3 Understandable with effort — sparse docs, complex structure
2 Confusing — unclear entry points, mixed concerns, minimal docs
1 Barely comprehensible — no docs, non-standard everything
0 Cannot determine project purpose or structure

Phase 2: Dependency Restore (Axis B)

Investigation Steps

  1. Identify package manager — npm, pip, dotnet, cargo, maven, etc.
  2. Run restore commandnpm install, pip install -r requirements.txt, dotnet restore, etc.
  3. Check for lock filespackage-lock.json, poetry.lock, Cargo.lock
  4. Identify private registries.npmrc, nuget.config, pip.conf
  5. Record failures — classify per taxonomy below

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

repository-readiness-eval is a skill published in the GitHub repository fabioc-aloha/Alex_Skill_Mall (4 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 2,347 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
