The Perl Hermit Kingdom
86% Perl, 98 public repos, 73 total stars. You've built an entire IPC ecosystem in a language most new grads have never typed, for an audience of roughly yourself and 5 CPAN archeologists.
CI? Never Heard of Her
Zero CI across every single analyzed repo. You've got Makefile.PL with 14+ pinned dependencies and kernel-limit probing scripts, but GitHub Actions is apparently too mainstream.
85% Graveyard Curator
staleRepoRatio=0.85 — 83 of your 98 repos haven't been touched in 2+ years. That's not a portfolio, that's a museum with a very active back room.
Version 0.000042 Energy
DBIx-QuickDB is on version 0.000042 after 8 years of development. At this rate of version increments, it'll hit 1.0 sometime around 2215.
3 PRs in 12 Months
106 followers, 15+ years on GitHub, a prolific IPC/testing ecosystem — and only 3 external PRs in the past year. The open-source community is waiting, Chad.

Shadows one worker for a week, then takes over their job with zero extra setup. Behaves exactly like the original.

exodist /
DBIx-QuickDB
Perl utility library for spinning up temporary database servers (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite) with solid multi-driver architecture and comprehensive docs. 382 KB codebase with clear separation of concerns but lacks automated testing infrastructure.
exodist /
Consumer-NonBlock
Perl module providing non-blocking inter-process communication via temp file batching. Well-documented with tests and clean API; niche utility actively maintained by prolific maintainer (exodist/CPAN ecosystem contributor).
exodist /
Atomic-Pipe
Niche POSIX pipe utility for atomic multi-process messaging. Typed Perl with structured codebase (lib/Atomic/Pipe.pm ~800 LOC), comprehensive test suite (Test2 with compression/mixed-mode/stress tests), and documented API. No CI/production adoption signals.
exodist /
IPC-Manager-Client-SharedMem
Focused Perl IPC protocol implementation with SysV semaphores & shared memory. Typed via strict/warnings, documented README, comprehensive unit tests (t/unit/Client-SharedMem.t with 20+ subtests), but zero stars/adoption. Experimental personal contribution to larger IPC::Manager ecosystem.
exodist /
Long-Jump
Perl module providing multi-level return mechanism via setjump/longjump with comprehensive README, test suite (t/basic.t, t/havejump.t), and proper packaging (Makefile.PL). Narrow niche utility with minimal adoption (1 star).
exodist /
IPC-Manager
Experimental Perl IPC library with pluggable protocols (AtomicPipe, UnixSocket, SQLite, PostgreSQL, etc) and serializers (JSON, JSON::Zstd). Well-documented with ARCHITECTURE.md, structured code, comprehensive test framework (IPC::Manager::Test), but only 2 stars, no external adoption signals, and sparse commit history

Tier thresholds
▸ How the pipeline works
- 01Scrape.Pull every non-fork repo pushed in the last 90 days, plus your contribution calendar, followers, and language byte counts — straight from GitHub's REST & GraphQL APIs.
- 02Triage.A small model reads every repo's file tree + README and picks the 20 files per repo that actually reveal how you code.
- 03Grade each repo. All repos run in parallel through a fast scoring model that reads the picked files and rates each one independently on Impact, Quality, and Depth — with evidence citations.
- 04Aggregate. A larger reasoning model combines the per-repo scores with server-computed stats (heatmap, commit cadence, language entropy, follower count) to produce the 6-dimension profile score + roasts.
- 05Correct.Deterministic server-side checks enforce anchor-scale floors (e.g. a profile with 2,000+ public commits can't score 30 Consistency) and recompute the final verdict.
~90 seconds per profile, ~$0.25 in compute. Total of ~240 files read across your top-12 repos. One rating per GitHub account per day.
▸ Data sources & caveats
- Heatmap & commit totals: GitHub GraphQL
contributionsCollection— covers the last 365 days, includes private repos when the user has opted in (default). - Language %: byte totals across the top 30 owned non-fork repos.
- Curve: a small upward nudge centered on raw score ≈ 70, capping at 100. Prevents specialists from being unfairly penalised for narrow breadth.
- Anchor corrections: when server-measured signals (e.g. privateWorkLikely, multiRepoVolume, follower count) mandate a minimum category score, the aggregation step enforces it. These are signal-conditional, not identity-based floors.
