Growth Opportunities
Flag patterns that suggest improvement areas:
- Low test coverage in active files — Files changed frequently but with few tests
- Large PRs — PRs with >500 lines suggest insufficient decomposition
- Long-lived branches — Branches open >5 days suggest integration risk
- Recurring bug areas — Same files in bug-fix commits suggest architectural issues
