thedotmack/claude-mem scores grade D, 60 of 100.
Commit health is what costs the grade: p90 2231 lines, churn proxy 25% (−10 churn penalty).
Against established software: 41% — above 11 of the 27 hand-written public projects in slopmeter's corpus, scanned 2026-09-10. A sample, not a census.

Commits
225 first-parent commits on main in the window, lockfiles and build output excluded. Median 100 lines, p90 2231, 77 over 400 lines, p90 15 files per commit, churn proxy 25%.
How this was measured
Over-engineering is five patterns counted per thousand lines, parsed with go/types and tree-sitter rather than matched as text. Test coverage is logic files against whole-word mentions of their symbols in the test files beside them. Commit health reads git log --first-parent over the window, with lockfiles and build output excluded. The composite renormalises over whatever could be measured; anything that could not says so.
