🚀 Built my first npm CLI tool: builtit

After noticing that many code analysis tools either require heavy configuration or stop at basic linting, I decided to build something different.

builtit is a zero-config project health scanner that combines fast local static analysis with optional AI-powered architectural reviews.

What it does

✅ Scans your project in seconds

✅ Detects missing documentation, tests, and CI/CD pipelines

✅ Finds unused dependencies

✅ Identifies oversized assets that may increase deployment costs

✅ Generates a project health score and remediation roadmap

AI-Powered Review

If you want deeper insights, builtit can:

• Automatically discover local Ollama models
• Use cloud models such as Gemini
• Split large codebases into token-safe batches
• Generate architecture review reports directly in your terminal

Design Goals

🔒 Privacy-first

⚡ Fast local analysis

🛠️ Zero configuration

📦 No installation required

Run it instantly:

npx builtit

This is one of my first developer tools, and I'd love feedback from the community on features, improvements, and real-world use cases.
