Score: 4.3/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 4, Documentation: 3, Utility: 4)

Repo Autopsy is a web tool that analyzes GitHub repositories to surface installation friction, claims to provide transparent heuristics beyond star counts. It aims to help developers assess the true cost of adopting a project, but the limited README and lack of implementation details suggest a simple heuristic-based approach.

Target audience: backend developers, devops engineers, open-source contributors
