ProAI Code Liability Monitor
A GitHub App that scans repositories for commits written with AI coding assistants (Copilot, Cursor, etc.), tracks the defect density and refactor frequency of AI-authored vs. human-authored lines, and gives engineering managers a quantified "AI code debt" score with a forecasted long‑term maintenance cost. It surfaces which modules dominated by AI code are triggering the most rework, so teams stop discovering the liability when it’s already in production.
Target Audience
Engineering managers at Series B‑C startups that have adopted AI coding assistants across their team and are seeing a rise in unexplained incidents and slower velocity. Today they rely on sparse git‑blame checks and engineer anecdotes, with no tool to attribute systemic rework – bug fixes, churn, refactors – back to AI‑generated code specifically.
Why Now
Dev.to featured “Every AI‑Generated Line of Code Is a Small Loan — And Eventually, You Have to Pay It Back” and multiple token‑burn reports this week, while Product Hunt launched AgentX for AI agent evaluation and Auriko for LLM call trading – signaling a clear demand for accountability of AI output. Simultaneously, GitHub Trending’s code‑review‑graph shows appetite for visualizing code change relationships, yet no product ties AI attribution to long‑term maintenance metrics, leaving teams without a way to measure the hidden cost of the AI‑assisted code flood.
