Audit CI pipeline evidence integrity
Audit the complete point-in-time change-to-pipeline-to-job-to-rerun cohort, exposing missing CI, orphan records, future leakage, inconsistent required-job outcomes, incomplete provider evidence and same-configuration fail-then-pass flake proxies without scoring people.
What it's for
Turns Gitrevio's CI failure-rate card into a trustworthy assurance ledger: which required changes really ran, which jobs and reruns belong to them, whether evidence is complete, and where feedback capacity is leaking.
What you give it
Inputs split into evidence read from your connected systems, calibration your team owns, and numerical controls that affect precision but never the result's meaning.

How it works
Statistical audit & measurement — Check whether a number is fit to decide on: coverage, timing, reconciliation, and the gaps a dashboard hides.
- 1 Freeze the complete CI-required change cohort and as-of cutoff, then reconcile repository and commit identities to every in-window pipeline run and job while preserving future, pre-window, ambiguous and orphan records as diagnostics.
- 2 Validate run/job timestamps, terminal completeness, required-job consistency, source verification, rerun parent acyclicity and exact commit/configuration/pipeline continuity; calculate change and job coverage before any performance metric.
- 3 Measure aggregate feedback, compute and same-change same-configuration fail-then-pass flake proxies only after lineage passes; separate evidence acceptance from a high-flake review finding and never infer individual fault or authorize a branch-policy change.
Before you trust it
Every tool in the catalog ships with the conditions under which its answer is meaningful — and the conditions under which it should abstain instead of guessing.
Assumptions & guardrails
- Metric definitions, weights, aggregate grain, sampling, missingness, dependence, and comparison windows correspond to the management claim being audited.
- The eligible-change projection is complete, commit identities are canonical across providers, source_complete means all jobs and attempts were delivered, and required/allowed-failure semantics reflect the effective branch policy.
- Association, instability, or measurement quality is not a causal effect and must not be converted directly into an individual employment decision.
- A fail-then-pass sequence is a review proxy rather than proof of flakiness, a failed job is not proof of poor engineering, and this aggregate audit never ranks contributors or authorizes merge, access, discipline or employment action.
Minimum evidence
- eligible_changes: required and organization-defined
- pipeline_runs: at least 0 rows/items
- jobs: at least 0 rows/items
- as_of_ms: required and organization-defined
How to validate it
Validate on future periods or held-out aggregate units, compare with a simple baseline, and require stability across plausible metric definitions and decision thresholds.
Calibrating it to your org
Same for everyone
The mathematical kernel, validation rules, method version, and JSON output semantics are organization-independent; no tenant-trained coefficients or company benchmark is embedded in the function.
Specific to you
- one point-in-time change-run-job-rerun projection that resolves provider commit identities, effective pipeline configuration hash, rerun parent, required/allowed-failure policy, source completeness and evidence verification without dropping cancellations, failures, skipped jobs or missing-run changes
- CI-required change perimeter, effective branch and required-job policy, configuration-version derivation, source-completeness semantics, as-of time, lookback, change/job/orphan coverage gates, flake-proxy review threshold and accountable CI owner
Calibration workflow
- 1 Define the management decision, target outcome, aggregate unit, privacy boundary, cadence, and prediction/intervention horizon for this organization.
- 2 Build a tenant-scoped historical cohort using only information available before each prediction or decision; preserve zero periods, censoring, assignment probabilities, and unresolved outcomes when the method requires them.
- 3 Estimate statistical parameters on training history, but obtain costs, utilities, risk tolerance, practical-effect thresholds, capacity, and policy constraints from accountable decision owners.
- 4 Validate on later time windows or held-out aggregate units at the deployment grain, against a simple baseline and the function-specific validation strategy.
- 5 Deploy only if the returned decision clears evidence, overlap, calibration, robustness, and guardrail checks; warning, unsupported, schema-gap, and fallback decisions are abstentions.
- 6 Monitor realized outcomes, data drift, coverage, and decision regret; recalibrate at a governed cadence or after a detected regime/definition change, never merely because a stakeholder dislikes the result.
