How CodeRabbit’s scores are calculated
The full audit trail, recomputed from the verdict data at build time through the same code that produced the leaderboard: verdict × quality × story weight per cell, cells sum to dimension scores, dimensions blend into the PA Score. Every number on the product page is reproducible from this page alone; for why the formula looks like this, see the methodology.
verdict factors: full ×1.0 · partial ×0.6 · disputed ×0.3 · none ×0.0 · n/a excluded from both sides · cell points = weight × quality × factor · cell max = weight × 10
PA Score37/100
Agent-ready 34.8 × 0.30 = 10.44
API quality 25.7 × 0.20 = 5.14
Openness 25.2 × 0.20 = 5.04
Built-in AI 77.8 × 0.15 = 11.67
Automation 28.5 × 0.15 = 4.27
(10.44 + 5.14 + 5.04 + 11.67 + 4.27) ÷ (0.30 + 0.20 + 0.20 + 0.15 + 0.15) = 36.56 ÷ 1.00 = 36.6
Scores are stored to 1 decimal; the product page’s pills round to whole numbers for display. Each dimension below shows the stories, verdicts, and cited evidence behind its number.
