📌 Summary

The gh-aw codebase demonstrates exceptional testing discipline and comprehensive documentation, achieving perfect scores in both areas. However, the extremely high code churn rate (76.9% of files modified in 7 days) and workflow instability present significant stability concerns.

Overall Assessment: The project is in an active development/rapid iteration phase with strong quality foundations but needs to stabilize workflow generation and reduce change frequency for production readiness.

Quality Score: 56.7/100 - Room for improvement, but strong fundamentals in place.
