**Primary language(s):** [LANGUAGES]
**Repository type:** [TYPE — e.g., open-source library, internal app, SaaS backend, CLI tool]

[PASTE_REPO_DATA_HERE]

## Health Assessment Framework

Evaluate the repository across these dimensions and provide a score (1–10) for each:

### 1. Documentation Quality
Is the README complete? Are there contribution guidelines, API docs, or setup instructions?

### 2. Commit Activity & Consistency
How active is the project? Are commits frequent, well-named, and atomic? Signs of "commit dumping" vs. disciplined practice?

### 3. Issue & PR Hygiene
Are issues triaged and labeled? Are PRs reviewed promptly? What is the approximate open/closed ratio?

### 4. Test Coverage
Is there evidence of unit, integration, or end-to-end tests? Is coverage tracked?

### 5. Dependency Health
Are dependencies up to date? Are there known CVEs or abandoned packages?

### 6. CI/CD Pipeline
Is there automated testing, linting, and deployment? Any obvious gaps?

### 7. Code Smell Indicators
Based on the data provided, flag any architectural, naming, or structural concerns.
