AI narrative
Livewire scores a healthy 86/100. The standout metrics are velocity trend (87) and AI Governance (83) — a sign that the team ships features steadily and reviews AI-assisted contributions cleanly. The principal risk is knowledge silos at 58/100, driven by the small core team: a handful of authors own a disproportionate share of central modules. If the project scales contributors further, pair-programming on the top two hotspots would be the highest-leverage investment. Overall posture is excellent for a small-team full-stack framework.
