Show HN: Codereport – track TODOs, refactors, and bugs in your repo with a CLI
- TODOs are scattered across files/apps/messages
- “Critical” fixes don’t actually block people from collecting debt
- PR comments or tickets aren’t enough actionable
So I built codereport, a CLI that stores structured follow-ups in the repo itself (.codereports/). Each report tracks:
- file + line range (src/foo.rs:42-88)
- tag (todo, refactor, buggy, critical)
- severity (you can configure it to be blocking in CI)
- optional expiration date
- owner (CODEOWNERS → git blame fallback)
You can list, resolve, or delete reports, generate a minimal HTML dashboard with heatmaps and KPIs, and run codereport check in CI to fail merges if anything blocking or expired is still open.
It’s repo-first, and doesn’t rely on any external services.
I’m curious:
Would a tool like this fit in your workflow?
Is storing reports in YAML in the repo reasonable?
Would CI enforcement feel useful or annoying?
