Maintenance risk in code you did NOT write — inheriting a module, planning a refactor, a suspected god object, 'what's gnarly / where's the rot / safe to touch?': hotspots, dead or inactive code, switches/defaults (--flags), clones, a function's real shape, bus factor, co-change. Naming the fix or judging YOUR new code → quality-bar. A single-lens question is a single call.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Fresh-eyes risk review with ripwire > Routing: > • Any DIFF — your own, or an incoming PR you're reviewing — about to push or merge → **ripwire-change-check**. > • **You have the measurement and now need the FIX** — which refactor a measured shape calls for, its > precondition, and the fix-then-prove loop → **ripwire-quality-bar**'s shape → refactor playbook. > • Architecture health (deps metrics, layering rules, modules) → **ripwire-layers**. > • Finding where a specific BUG lives → **ripwire-find-bug**. > • Not sure which skill? → **ripwire-router**. > > **Scope it to one unfamiliar subsystem** you're about to touch, instead of the whole tree, two ways: > point `<dir>` at the subdirectory (`ripwire src/net --hotspots`), or keep the repo root and `--exclude` the > rest. `--dead-code=DIR` also scopes directly. This is how you turn the repo-wide sweep into a > "what's-gnarly-in-code-I-didn't-write" read of one module. `<dir>` = repo root. Add `--exclude=build --exclude=.git` (repeatable) to keep build artifacts out — they otherwise show up as false clones and dead code. This composes descriptive passes into one snapshot; run the sections your question needs. …

How to install
mdr add redhat-et/ripwire/ripwire-fresh-eyes@sha256:6378facbb73b266cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.d4da24e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
