Workflow
Review controls, protected changes, CI, ownership, and release discipline.
STARTUP TECHNICAL READINESS
Connect a GitHub repository, collect reproducible evidence, fix material gaps, and share a versioned readiness report—without pretending a scanner is a crystal ball.
WHAT IT PROVES
The first product phase checks the engineering basics investors, advisors, and early customers reasonably expect—then shows exactly what was and was not verified.
Review controls, protected changes, CI, ownership, and release discipline.
Secrets, dependencies, licenses, risky patterns, and provenance evidence.
Test signals, rollback, backup, observability, and incident readiness.
Self-attested architecture and critical-flow evidence now; independent comprehension validation later.
THE FIRST LOOP
The artifact improves as the product improves. A dated before-and-after trail is more credible than a decorative badge.
Install a read-only GitHub App on selected repositories.
Collect deterministic evidence and clearly labeled declarations.
Resolve blockers and material gaps with practical guidance.
Publish a sanitized report tied to a commit and profile version.
OPEN METHOD
VentureLint separates automated evidence, founder declarations, and future human validation. A failed blocker always overrides aggregate coverage.
Repository settings, workflow signals, scanner output, and commit metadata. Every material result must be reproducible.
Architecture, backup, ownership, and operational answers are valuable—but explicitly labeled until independently checked.
The later assurance tier tests whether the team can explain, predict, change, and recover critical workflows.
Maximum automated conclusion
Baseline readyNever “certified secure.” Never “guaranteed.” Never detached from a commit.GITHUB CONNECTION
VentureLint requests read-only repository metadata and contents so it can collect assessment evidence. It does not install dependencies, run repository code, or send source code to an LLM.
Suspending or uninstalling the GitHub App immediately removes active repository access in VentureLint. Historical assessment records remain subject to the documented retention policy.
