About this codebase
489 files and 2,051 symbols in 12 modules, led by Go (410 files) and Python (3).
Built from the index
Code health
This codebase scores 7.3 out of 10 for code health, which we rate good. It also scores maintainability 8.1 and static performance 9.7 out of 10. The three are scored separately and never blended into one number. Risk is concentrated, as it usually is: 54 of 489 files are git hotspots, and they average 5.3 — which is where the fixes pay off most.

4 things worth doing this quarter.
Worth planning
Break up findEncodingMatches (CCN 107, 200 lines)
detect/codec/encodings.go:152
findEncodingMatches has many independent paths through it, and part of it is duplicated, so splitting it also removes a copy; 3 files import it.

Medium effort, worth a checkBreak up translate (CCN 45, 179 lines)
config/config.go:198
translate is long, branchy and widely depended on; 265 files import it, changed 4 times in 90 days.

Medium effort, worth a checkDelete 3 unused symbols and files (7 lines)
Nothing in the graph reaches them, across 3 files; every reader and agent pays to skip them.

Use betterleaks/betterleaks in your agent
Point Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or VS Code at this repository. Your agent gets the index this page is built from: cited answers, callers, history and health for any file.
https://api.repowise.dev/mcp/betterleaks/betterleaksOne command, run anywhere. Adds the server to your local Claude Code config.

- get_overview()
- get_answer("how is betterleaks put together?")
- get_why("why is betterleaks structured this way?")
Prefer local? pip install repowise && repowise init indexes your own checkout, no account needed.

Scan the world (for secrets) This page is a map of the betterleaks/betterleaks repository, written primarily in Go, rebuilt from the source each time it is indexed. Repowise parses every symbol, computes a dependency graph, scores per-file code health from complexity, duplication, test coverage and churn, mines git history for hotspots and ownership, and lifts the architectural decisions into documentation you can read here or query through MCP.
The codebase has 489 files and 2,051 symbols in 12 modules, led by Go, Python and Dockerfile. Code health is 7.3 out of 10, rated good.
