Daily Code Metrics Report - 2026-02-22

[github-actions[bot]]

The gh-aw repository continues to demonstrate strong engineering discipline with a quality score of 74/100 (Good). The codebase contains 659,616 total lines of code across 3,168 files, with an exceptional test-to-source ratio of 2.32x — meaning there are more than twice as many test lines as source lines, a strong indicator of a test-driven culture. The repository is an active, high-churn codebase: 435 commits landed in the past 7 days touching 1,325 unique source files (excluding generated *.lock.yml files).

The most significant area of improvement is code organization — 217 Go files exceed 500 LOC, which inflates complexity. The .github/workflows directory alone accounts for 271,922 LOC (heavily inflated by 158 compiled *.lock.yml files totaling 210,069 lines). The pkg/ directory is the largest genuine source directory at 452,298 LOC, driven primarily by the 304,577 test lines. Documentation (34,661 LOC across 117 Markdown files) is healthy but could grow proportionally with the codebase.

📊 Visualizations

LOC Distribution by Language

Go Tests dominate at 304,577 LOC (46.2%), followed by Markdown at 177,922 LOC (27.0%) and Go Source at 131,084 LOC (19.9%). The test-heavy profile reflects a deliberate investment in testing infrastructure, particularly for the workflow compiler and parser subsystems.

Top Directories by LOC

The pkg/ directory leads at 452,298 LOC, largely composed of Go test files. The .github/workflows directory at 271,922 LOC is heavily inflated by compiled *.lock.yml files. scratchpad/ (37,934 LOC) and specs/ (9,647 LOC) represent significant design/planning artifacts stored in the repo.

Quality Score Breakdown

The 74/100 score reflects full marks for test coverage and comment density, with the main drag being code organization (large file count) and high weekly churn.

Test Coverage Analysis

At a 2.32x test-to-source ratio with 304,577 test LOC across 966 test files, the repository far exceeds the recommended 0.5–1.0x ratio. Key test files exceed 2,000 LOC each (e.g., compiler_jobs_test.go, schema_test.go), reflecting comprehensive golden-file and integration testing.

Code Churn - Last 7 Days

Most active source files over the past 7 days (generated *.lock.yml files excluded). pkg/parser/schemas/main_workflow_schema.json changed in 36 commits and pkg/constants/constants.go in 25 commits, indicating active feature development in safe-outputs and workflow compilation. Documentation files for safe-outputs.md and frontmatter-full.md also show heavy editing activity.

💡 Insights & Recommendations

1. Reduce large file count: 217 Go files exceed 500 LOC (14% of all Go files). Splitting the largest test files (compiler_jobs_test.go at 2,019 LOC, schema_test.go at 1,989 LOC) into focused sub-packages would improve navigability and lower complexity without sacrificing coverage.

2. Monitor workflow schema churn: pkg/parser/schemas/main_workflow_schema.json changed in 36 commits last week. If this reflects ongoing feature additions to safe-outputs or frontmatter, consider versioning or auto-generating it from a canonical source to reduce manual drift.

3. Track lock.yml growth: 158 compiled lock.yml files at 210,069 LOC represent a large generated artifact surface. Consider whether older or unused workflow lock files can be pruned to reduce repository size.

4. Grow documentation proportionally: The code-to-docs ratio is 3.78:1. As the safe-outputs specification and frontmatter reference are actively evolving (top churn files), ensuring docs stay synchronized with implementation changes will be important.

5. Establish 30-day trend baseline: This is the first run with repo memory enabled. After 7+ days of daily runs, the historical trend chart will reveal real growth trajectories and flag anomalies automatically.
