ImpactGate scores structural decay before merge

What's this about?

A new merge-gate tool proposes scoring structural decay in AI-assisted changes; commenters question metric scope and whether the project itself meets its quality claims.

What exactly is merge gate?

A check that runs before a code change joins the main branch. Structural metrics can flag risk, but cannot alone establish that behaviour is correct.

  1. Complexity metrics could help AI-heavy development teams.
  2. One metric is not a complete quality assessment.
  3. Readers criticised project polish and AI-written marketing/comments.
