Three "one more things" later, v2.9.0 was done. 1) Problem 1: The tool had no memory Every run produced a score. That score disappeared. You had no way to know if a file was getting better or worse. No way to know if the AI had been touching the same file repeatedly, each time nudging the deficit score up a little further. Most linters (static analysis tools that check code for problems without running it) work this way — scan, report, forget. For tracking AI-generated code quality over time, that's not enough. The direction of change matters as much as the score itself. The fix: SQLite auto-recording on every run. (SQLit
