nova-thesis
jerry7991/nova-thesisPlugin
nova-thesis challenges technical implementations before they ship. Present any implementation — a problem statement, a design sketch, a code snippet, or a full repository — and the skill refuses to accept it at face value. It scores the work across five dimensions (Correctness, Completeness, Scalability, Security, Maintainability), surfaces a real-world incident from an index of public postmortems that matches the riskiest gap, and asks hard, specific questions anchored to that incident. It keeps pushing until every dimension scores at least 7/10, or until you consciously name and accept the remaining trade-offs. Unlike review tools that confirm, nova-thesis is built to find where things break — before production does. Read-only, MIT licensed, no telemetry, no external services required. Ships with 20 test scenarios and a defended-thesis example that proves the skill also correctly approves strong work.
Why this score
Popularity score: 43/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Nov 4, 2026 at commit af36a55113fb, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
