Analysis

Our read

01

Governance leads the assessment.

5 of 5 visible controls pass in governance.

02

Code quality has the most room to improve.

7 visible controls remain open in code quality.

Priority

Fix these first

critical

Production approvers named

Covers 3 controls
  • Production approvers named
  • Production protection
  • Production reviewers resolved

What Verify read

No resolved production reviewers.

Risk: Unnamed production approvers mean deployment approval falls to whoever is nearby when the button needs pressing.

critical

Required checks match workflow names

Covers 4 controls
  • Required checks match workflow names
  • Required status checks strict
  • Required check includes tests
  • Required lint check

What Verify read

Required checks: none

Risk: If required checks do not match the jobs that run, a rule appears to protect the branch while enforcing nothing.

text
Align required checks with jobs.
critical

Unit test command

Covers 2 controls
  • Unit test command
  • Tests run in CI

What Verify read

No tree evidence for test.

Risk: With no test command, there is no repeatable way to establish whether the code still works.

Add a test script.

Method

How Verify works

01

Read

Verify reads the repository at a pinned commit: settings, rulesets, workflows, and files.

02

Judge

Each control is checked against a written expectation. Same inspector, same criteria, every repository.

03

Prove

Every result shows the evidence Verify read. Assessments re-run daily, and changes are logged.
