Four readings taken from the repository's own commit history

None of these come from stars. They are measured from commits, which is why they can disagree with the star curve — and why it matters when they do.

Maintenance
Commit cadence
How regularly work actually lands, not when the last release was tagged.
Ownership
Author concentration
Whether the work is spread across a team or resting on one person.
Repair load
Fix-labelled share
How much of recent work is fixing rather than building.
Debt markers
TODO / FIXME movement
Whether the markers left in the code are being cleared or accumulating.
