+# vibe-check Development Guide
+
+## npm Publishing Standards
+
+### When to Publish
+
+| Change Type | Version Bump | Publish? |
+|-------------|--------------|----------|
+| **Breaking changes** | MAJOR (1.0.0 → 2.0.0) | Yes |
+| **New features** (backward compatible) | MINOR (1.0.0 → 1.1.0) | Yes |
+| **Bug fixes** | PATCH (1.0.0 → 1.0.1) | Yes |
+| **Docs only (README, CHANGELOG)** | None | **No** |
+| **Tests only** | None | **No** |
+| **CI/tooling only** | None | **No** |
+
+### GitHub README vs npm README
+
+- **GitHub README**: Always shows latest from repo
+- **npm README**: Snapshot from last publish - only updates when you `npm publish`
+
+**Docs-only changes don't need a publish.** Just commit and push to GitHub.
+
+### Version Commands
+
+```bash
+# Check current version
+npm version
+
+# Bump and publish (creates git tag automatically)
+npm version patch   # 1.0.1 → 1.0.2 (bug fixes)
+npm version minor   # 1.0.1 → 1.1.0 (new features)
+npm version major   # 1.0.1 → 2.0.0 (breaking changes)
+
+# Then publish
+npm publish --access=public
+```
+
+### How Users Consume Versions
+
+```bash
+npm install @boshu2/vibe-check        # Gets "latest"
+npm install @boshu2/vibe-check@1.0.2  # Exact version
+npm install @boshu2/vibe-check@^1.0.0 # Any 1.x.x (common default)
+npm install @boshu2/vibe-check@~1.0.0 # Any 1.0.x only
+```
+
+Most users have `^` (caret) in their package.json, meaning they'll auto-update to latest minor/patch.
+
+## Development Workflow
+
+### Running Locally
+
+```bash
+npm run dev           # Run with ts-node
+npm run build         # Compile TypeScript
+npm test              # Run Vitest tests
+npm run test:coverage # Tests with coverage
+```
+
+### Testing the CLI
+
+```bash
+# Run against a repo
+node dist/cli.js --repo /path/to/repo --since "1 week ago"
+
+# Test different output formats
+node dist/cli.js --format json
+node dist/cli.js --format markdown
+```
+
+### Before Publishing
+
+1. Ensure tests pass: `npm test`
+2. Update CHANGELOG.md with changes
+3. Bump version appropriately (see table above)
+4. Commit version bump
+5. `npm publish --access=public`

+## The 5 Metrics
+
+| Metric | Measures | Threshold |
+|--------|----------|-----------|
+| Iteration Velocity | Commits/hour | >5 = Elite |
+| Rework Ratio | % fix commits | <30% = Elite |
+| Trust Pass Rate | % commits without immediate fix | >95% = Elite |
+| Debug Spiral Duration | Avg time in fix chains | <15m = Elite |
+| Flow Efficiency | % time building vs debugging | >90% = Elite |
+
+## Debug Spiral Detection
+
+A "debug spiral" is detected when 3+ consecutive fix commits target the same component. Patterns are categorized:
+
+- `SECRETS_AUTH` - OAuth/credentials issues
+- `API_MISMATCH` - API version/schema problems
+- `VOLUME_CONFIG` - Mount/permission issues
+- `SSL_TLS` - Certificate problems
+- `IMAGE_REGISTRY` - Container pull issues
+- `GITOPS_DRIFT` - Sync/reconciliation issues

+
+### Action Inputs
+
+| Input | Description | Default |
+|-------|-------------|---------|
+| `github-token` | GitHub token for PR comments | `${{ github.token }}` |
+| `since` | Start date for analysis | PR base commit |
+| `threshold` | Minimum rating to pass (elite, solid, needs-work) | none |

+| `comment-on-pr` | Post results as PR comment | `true` |
+
+### Action Outputs
+
+| Output | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `overall` | Overall rating (elite, solid, needs-work, struggling) |
+| `vibe-score` | Numeric score (0-100) |
+| `json` | Full JSON results |
+
+### Example: Fail PR if Below Threshold
+
+```yaml
+- uses: boshu2/vibe-check@v1
+  with:
+    github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+    threshold: 'solid'  # Fails if below solid
+```

+```
+
 ## Requirements
 
-- Node.js >= 18.0.0
+- Node.js >= 20.0.0
 - Git repository with commit history
 - Conventional commits recommended (but not required)
 
+## Limitations & Caveats
+
+### What This Tool Does NOT Measure
+
+| Claim | Reality |
+|-------|---------|
+| Code quality | Measures commit patterns, not code correctness |
+| Actual productivity | Measures velocity signals, not shipped value |
+| AI effectiveness | Measures workflow patterns, not AI contribution |
+
+### Known Limitations
+
+1. **No ground truth validation**: The correlation between these metrics and actual productivity outcomes has not been independently validated.
+
+2. **Threshold sensitivity**: Magic numbers (5 min spiral threshold, 3-file churn) are based on practitioner intuition, not empirical studies.
+
+3. **Goodhart's Law risk**: Once you know the metrics, you may unconsciously optimize for them rather than actual outcomes.
+
+4. **Cold start**: New repositories have no calibration data. Default model weights are educated guesses.
+
+5. **Sample size**: The ML model requires 20+ calibration samples for meaningful learning. Results with fewer samples are unreliable.
+
+### When NOT to Use
+
+- As a performance review metric (easily gamed)
+- To compare across teams or developers (different baselines)
+- As the sole indicator of AI tool effectiveness
+- Without understanding what each metric actually measures
+
+### Recommended Use
+
+Use vibe-check as **one signal among many**:
+- Combine with code review feedback
+- Track alongside deployment success rates
+- Use for self-reflection, not external judgment
+- Treat as directional, not precise
+
