Code health
This codebase scores 6.8 out of 10 for code health, which we rate fair. It also scores maintainability 7.5 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: 3 of 166 files are git hotspots, and they average 1.1 — which is where the fixes pay off most.

How defeat-beta/defeatbeta-api works
Input enters through the Ticker class in defeatbeta_api/data/ticker.py, which accepts a company ticker symbol such as TSLA. The ticker exposes methods for prices, financial statements, earnings call transcripts, and other market data. DuckDB performs SQL-compatible analytical queries against the hosted market data source through cache_httpfs. Transcript access separates catalog listing from on-demand retrieval by fiscal year and quarter. The mcp directory provides an MCP server implementation, while the skills directory provides workflows for AI financial analysis. The test/test_ticker.py file covers ticker behavior, and mcp/src/defeatbeta_mcp/tools/breakdown.py implements an MCP analysis tool.
The codebase has 166 files and 485 symbols in 4 modules, led by Python and Shell. Code health is 6.8 out of 10, rated fair.
Getting started with defeatbeta-api
- Install defeatbeta-api from PyPI with pip.

About this page
Get a page like this for your own codebase
Repowise built this map of defeat-beta/defeatbeta-api from its source and git history. It parses every symbol, draws the dependency graph, scores each file's health from complexity, duplication, coverage and churn, finds hotspots and owners in the history, and writes documentation for every module. Your coding agent reads the same index over MCP, so its answers cite real files.
Prefer local? pip install repowise && repowise init indexes your own checkout, no account needed.
