global-roam / ch-go
Low-level Go Client for ClickHouse
global-roam/ch-go holds a health index of 42 out of 100, placing it in the Weak band. It scores highest on AI Readiness (78/100) and lowest on Community & Adoption (12/100). It was last updated 74 days ago. A single contributor accounts for most of its recent work.
42
overall / 100Software health index
Metrics are grouped into weighted categories on one standardized 1–100 scale. Overall starts as their weighted mean, calibrated against the distribution of the public record so bands carry percentile meaning; when public evidence triggers the High-Risk Jurisdiction Policy, the rating is adjusted and receives an At Risk ceiling of 34.
42
Exceptional93-100The record's top tier (≈ top 5%); essentially all checked criteria met
Excellent80-92Strong across the board; minor gaps
Good65-79Healthy; gaps are limited and manageable
Moderate50-64Acceptable with notable gaps; review recommended
Weak35-49Material weaknesses across several areas
At Risk20-34Significant weaknesses; adoption warrants caution
Critical1-19Severe problems (abandoned, single-maintainer, no hygiene)
Score profile
Each axis is a category. The shape matters more than the average — a healthy subject fills the whole shape, while a spike-and-crater profile means strength in one dimension is masking risk in another.
The weighted overall 45 is calibrated to 42 on the published index scale (record calibration 2026-08-02).

| affected_packages | 4 |
| assessed_packages | 37 |

| direct_affected_packages | 3 |
Excluded from scoring (no data or not applicable): Indirect dependencies free of known advisories. Remaining weights renormalized. Matched 37 resolved dependencies against OSV. This repository publishes no package the index resolves, so the repository dependency graph was assessed instead. That graph mixes development and test pins with shipped dependencies, so only the declared runtime dependencies are scored; transitive findings are reported as context and excluded from the score. Reachability is not analyzed.
AI Readiness
How well is the repo equipped to be developed and maintained with AI coding agents? Carries a deliberately small weight (4%): agent tooling is a real maintenance signal, but a repository with none can still reach 100/100.

Dependency advisories 4
This repository publishes no package the index resolves, so its own dependency graph was assessed — 37 packages, which also include development and test pins that never ship: 4 carry known advisories, of which 3 are direct.
| Package | Version | Relation | Severity | Advisories | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk | v1.44.0 | direct | low | 2 | 1.45.0 |
| golang.org/x/crypto | v0.52.0 | direct | unknown | 4 | 0.56.0 |
| golang.org/x/crypto | v0.54.0 | direct | unknown | 4 | 0.56.0 |
| golang.org/x/mod | v0.24.0 | indirect | unknown | 2 | 1.27.0-rc.3 |
An advisory means the version recorded in the dependency graph falls inside an advisory’s affected range. Reachability is not analysed, and the graph includes development and test pins — a finding may concern tooling rather than shipped software.
