Strengths

  • AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md
  • CI configuration
  • CONTRIBUTING guide
  • Dependency manifest
  • License file

Gaps

  • Reproducible dev env
  • Pre-commit / git hooks

Suggestions to improve for a specific model

  1. 1
    Reproducible dev env
    Add a Makefile or devcontainer or Dockerfile so the agent can set up the project in one command.
    +7.0 pts
  2. 2
    Pre-commit / git hooks
    Set up pre-commit (.pre-commit-config.yaml), husky, or lefthook to run format+lint on every commit.
    +4.2 pts
  3. 3
    Manageable size
    If possible, split into smaller modules or carve out a focused entry path. Document where to start in AGENTS.md.

Per-model scores

Claude Code
Weights AGENTS.md and tests heavily — Claude Code leans on an instructions file and a fast feedback loop.
79.6
Cursor
Weights type config and a detailed README highly — Cursor's inline edits benefit from static types and skim-readable docs.
85.9
Devin
Weights CI and reproducible envs highly — Devin runs in a sandboxed VM and needs end-to-end automation.
77.5
GPT-5 Codex
Balanced profile as a reference point.
