Show HN: CheckOwners to find your repo's hidden single points of failure

Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 6, Documentation: 8, Utility: 6)

checkOwners analyzes local git history to infer code ownership and compares it against committed CODEOWNERS files, surfacing knowledge risk, drift, and unwritten ownership. It offers audit, drift, generate, risk, and suggest commands, plus a GitHub Action for CI. The originality is in combining git-history ownership inference with CODEOWNERS auditing in an offline-first, privacy-conscious CLI.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, engineering managers, platform teams
