Reference Implementation Metrics

OpenForge provides a practical Maturity Scorecard to evaluate repository engineering quality and standards compliance.

Scoring Rubric

Score	Status	Description
`2`	Automated	Fully implemented and automated via CI/CD where practical
`1`	Manual	Partially implemented or manually maintained
`0`	Missing	Missing or non-compliant with standard baseline
`N/A`	Not Applicable	Not applicable to the project type (e.g. UI localization for CLI tools)

Domain	Core Checkpoints	Target State
Documentation	Dual README pair, architecture docs, development guide, lessons log	Complete 1:1 EN/KO parity, active lessons log
Architecture	Architecture Decision Record (ADR) system	Maintained `docs/adr/` index and records
GitHub	Issue/PR templates, CODEOWNERS, labeling taxonomy	Structured, template-driven change management
CI / Validation	Automated build, test, format, and documentation checks	Mandatory pre-merge automated gates
Security	Dependabot, container scanning, secret detection, SECURITY policy	Automated scheduled scans and SBOM generation
Development	Language formatters (`gofumpt`), Makefile task automation	Single-command local build and verification
Release	SemVer, CHANGELOG, release workflows, cryptographic signing	Tag-triggered automated signed distribution
Configuration	`.env.example`, clean configuration boundaries	Clean separation of secrets from configuration
Localization	Multilingual UI resources (`en-US`, `ko-KR`)	Structured, modular i18n resource bundles
