💡 Insights & Recommendations

1. Maintain Exceptional Test Coverage: The 2.35:1 test-to-source ratio is outstanding. Continue prioritizing test development alongside feature work to maintain this excellent standard.

2. Improve Comment Density: Current 10% comment ratio is half the recommended 20% target. Focus on adding inline comments for complex logic, especially in workflow compilation and orchestration code where the top churn files indicate active development.

3. Monitor Code Churn: With 26% of the codebase modified in 7 days (756 files), ensure that rapid development maintains code quality. The focus on test files in churn indicates good practices, but review large files (202 files >500 LOC) for potential modularization.

4. Leverage Strong Documentation Foundation: The 0.14:1 code-to-docs ratio is exceptional. Continue this practice for new features, and consider using the documentation to guide inline commenting standards.

5. Optimize Quality Score Balance: While test coverage and documentation are perfect, improving comment density (+5 points) and managing churn patterns (+10 points) could push the quality score toward 95/100.
