Open Source Projects

  • cpp-linter — A suite of C/C++ code quality tools integrating clang-format and clang-tidy, available as a GitHub Action and pre-commit hook. Adopted by hundreds of notable projects including Microsoft, Apache, and NASA. cpp-linter-action is among the most recognized C/C++ linting solutions on GitHub.

  • commit-check — A flexible Git convention checker that validates commit messages, branch names, and author information. Supports GitHub Actions, pre-commit, and CLI usage, helping teams keep Git workflows consistent.

  • conventional-branch — A specification and toolset for standardizing Git branch naming conventions, including validators and GitHub Actions for open source projects and engineering teams.

  • devops-maturity — A framework for assessing and communicating DevOps maturity through structured specs and badge systems, helping teams measure progress and drive continuous improvement.

  • explain-error-plugin — An official Jenkins plugin that uses AI to explain build failures and now supports AI Auto-Fix for creating repair PRs, usage statistics and quota controls, and multiple providers including OpenAI, Gemini, Azure OpenAI, DeepSeek, Qwen, Ollama, and AWS Bedrock.

  • MkDocs NG — Maintains mkdocs-ng and mkdocs-ng-material to keep the MkDocs and Material for MkDocs ecosystem usable, with bug fixes, dependency upgrades, Python compatibility work, and a migration path that preserves the original CLI, configuration file, and plugin interfaces.

  • gitstats — A Git repository analytics tool that visualizes contribution patterns, commit frequency, contributor activity, and code trends. Version 2.0 moved the chart engine to Chart.js and added responsive UI, dark/light mode, and AI-generated repository insights.
