The tool provides exact file and line references for missing rules, offers suggested wording, and requires no login or repository permissions. A paid Pro tier is planned to continuously monitor AI Readiness and Repository Health across entire organizations, with early access shaping its feature set.", "body_md": "### Scan\n\nPaste a repo URL. 25 checks against what your contribution docs actually say. Every finding shows the file and line behind it.\n\nPaste any public GitHub repository. See which contribution rules are missing, get the exact wording to fix them, and commit it. Free, no login, read-only.\n\n4 things a contributor would have to guess at.\n\n“Contributors must disclose in the pull request description all material AI assistance.”\n\nLinters read your code. Nothing reads your rules.\n\nMost tools hand you a list of problems. This one hands you the files — then checks that you committed them.\n\nPaste a repo URL. 25 checks against what your contribution docs actually say. Every finding shows the file and line behind it.\n\nA handful of questions only you can answer — where to disclose, which commands must run, who approves what. Everything else is written for you.\n\nCopy or download finished Markdown, drop it in your repo, rescan. The score moves — or the tool tells you it got something wrong.\n\nEvery one of the 25 checks maps to one of them. None of it is a judgment call.\n\n25 published rules, versioned, plain pattern matching. No model decides whether your repository “feels” ready — and when a rule was wrong, the [changelog](/changelog) says so, and which way scores moved.\n\nNo OAuth, no cloning, no code execution, no permission to change anything.\n\nReports stay out of search. You publish when you choose.\n\nPro is being built to continuously monitor AI contribution rules and Repository Health across your organization — no pasting, no reminders. Early access members shape what it checks first.\n\nEvery repo in the org, without anyone starting it.\n\nCatch missing, deleted or weakened AI contribution rules before review.\n\nTrack documentation, ownership, CI, security guidance, dependency automation and maintenance signals.\n\nKnow when a repository moves away from the agreed standard.\n\nSee AI Readiness and Repository Health across every repo, and which ones need attention.\n\nIf you look after more than a handful of repos, tell me what it should catch — early access requests decide what ships first.\n\nFind the uncertainty before it becomes wasted work, inconsistent reviews or another policy argument inside a pull request.\n\nSurface missing disclosure, approval, testing and agent boundaries before the next PR — and get the wording to close them.\n\n**This is you if:**\n\nYou maintain a repository and review outside or AI-assisted contributions.\n\nFree shows AI Readiness and Repository Health one repo at a time. Pro monitors both across the whole organization automatically — join early access to shape what it checks.\n\n**This is you if:**\n\nYou own engineering standards across more than a handful of repositories.\n\n3 repos a day · No login · Read-only", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/repopolicyscore-check-if-a-github-repo-is-ready-for-ai-contributors", "canonical_source": "https://repopolicyscore.com", "published_at": "2026-09-03 14:02:14+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-09-03 14:23:08.452331+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["RepoPolicyScore", "GitHub"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/repopolicyscore-check-if-a-github-repo-is-ready-for-ai-contributors", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/repopolicyscore-check-if-a-github-repo-is-ready-for-ai-contributors.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/repopolicyscore-check-if-a-github-repo-is-ready-for-ai-contributors.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/repopolicyscore-check-if-a-github-repo-is-ready-for-ai-contributors.jsonld"}}
