Status:

Blameless — focused on systemic causes, not fault.


What Happened

Two issues were identified: 1. Bus factor of 1 — shuresm57 accounted for the vast majority of commits and contributions, creating a single point of failure. 2. Accidental dependency commit.bundle/ and vendor/ were pushed, inflating line stats significantly.

Impact


Resolution

.bundle/ and vendor/ have been added to .gitignore. Historical commits remain as evidence of the incident.
