Code health

5.7out of 10Fair

This codebase scores 5.7 out of 10 for code health, which we rate fair. It also scores maintainability 7.6 and static performance 9.2 out of 10. The three are scored separately and never blended into one number. Risk is concentrated, as it usually is: 4 of 197 files are git hotspots, and they average 3.9 — which is where the fixes pay off most.

How cathrynlavery/diagram-design works

Input enters through the shared skill in skills/diagram-design/, which agent-compatible tools use for diagram requests. The skill selects a visual type and applies a style guide to produce static HTML and SVG output. The assets/index.html gallery lets users open the diagram variants directly in a browser. The scripts/mermaid_extract.py file extracts Mermaid sources for redraw workflows. The scripts/lint-skin.py and scripts/test-lint-a11y.py files support style and accessibility checks. The scripts/verify-mermaid-import.py file verifies Mermaid imports.

The codebase has 197 files and 422 symbols in 2 modules, led by Python. Code health is 5.7 out of 10, rated fair.
