Core Concept

Bus Factor. Your Biggest Hidden Risk.

How many people would need to leave before a repo becomes unmaintainable. Anything below 2 is a critical risk that needs immediate attention.

What You'll See

Key capabilities and insights available in this lens.

Knowledge Concentration

Measures how concentrated code knowledge is across contributors. A repo where one person wrote 90% of the code has a bus factor of 1.

Critical Risk Threshold

Any repository with a bus factor below 2 is flagged as critical. These repos are one resignation away from being unmaintainable.

Contributor Distribution

Visualize how code ownership is distributed across the team. See who owns which parts and where knowledge gaps exist.

Bus Factor Trends

Track bus factor over time. A declining bus factor means knowledge is concentrating. An improving one means your team is sharing ownership.

Per-Repository Analysis

Every repository gets its own bus factor score. Identify your riskiest repos at a glance and prioritize knowledge sharing efforts.

Health Impact

Bus factor is a key input to overall repository health scores. Low bus factor automatically lowers the health grade of a repository.
