valknut

This is a big part of why vibe coded projects fall over. AI creates big balls of mud because it's myopic as hell. Linters help but they're still pretty limited. I've had good success using https://github.com/sibyllinesoft/valknut to automate the majority of my refactoring work. I still do a style/naming pass on things, but it handles most issues that can be analytically measured.

I have a code quality analysis tool that I use to "un-slopify" AI code. It doesn't handle algorithms and code semantics, which are still the programmer's domain, but it does a pretty good job of forcing agents to dry out code, separate concerns, group code more intelligently and generally write decoupled quasi-functional code. It works quite well with the raph loop to deeply restructure codebases. https://github.com/sibyllinesoft/valknut

I analyzed a lot of repositories when developing Valknut (https://github.com/sibyllinesoft/valknut) in order to eval the algorithms and catch bugs. Since people love leaderboards and I want to support well written open source software, I figured I'd make a little app so people can test their work and optionally show off their score for promotional purposes. TS/JS/Go/Python/Rust are currently supported. If you disagree with scoring, I'm happy to have a conversation and do evals based on your feedback, but keep in mind that the code that is optimal for humans is not quite the same code that's optimal for agents (though there's a lot of crossover!). If there's interest I'm happy to put together a Github badge to let you show off your ranking/score.
