💡 Tips
  • Reduce function complexity and add type annotations

Install

pip install vibescore

That's it. Zero dependencies. Works with Python 3.9+.

Usage

# Grade the current directory
vibescore .

# Grade a specific project
vibescore /path/to/project

# JSON output (for CI pipelines)
vibescore . --format json

# Fail CI if score is below threshold
vibescore . --min-score 70

As a Python library

from vibescore import scan

report = scan(".")
print(f"Grade: {report.overall_grade} ({report.overall_score:.0f}/100)")

for category in report.categories:
    print(f"  {category.name}: {category.grade}")

How Scoring Works

Each category is scored 0–100 independently. The overall score is a weighted average:

Security is weighted highest because a security bug in vibe-coded projects can be catastrophic.

Why vibescore?

Vibe coding means AI writes most of your code. That's fast, but it introduces risks:

• AI hallucinates long functions that are hard to debug
• AI skips security basics like input validation and secret management
• AI often omits tests or writes superficial ones
• AI uses loose dependency pins that break on updates

vibescore catches these patterns in seconds, so you can ship fast and ship safe.

FAQ

Q: Does this only work with Python?
A: Currently Python-focused for code quality and testing analysis. Security and dependency checks work with any project type. More languages coming soon.

Q: Does it phone home or require an API key?
A: No. Zero network requests. Zero dependencies. Runs entirely offline.

Q: How is this different from pylint/ruff/flake8?
A: Those are line-level linters. vibescore gives you a project-level grade across security, quality, testing, and dependencies — a holistic view of your vibe-coded project's health. Use both.
