Private alpha · v0.1.1

Inspect the evidence. Not the confidence.

PRODUCTION-7 turns a Python backend into an explicit engineering decision: what the repository proves, what remains unknown and what should block a release.

Evidence chain

A score is the end of the reasoning, not the beginning.

Every conclusion remains connected to a deterministic observation, supplied artefact or explicit human decision. Unknowns stay visible instead of becoming invented certainty.

  1. 01
    Inspect locally

    Read bounded repository evidence without importing or executing the target application.

  2. 02
    Separate facts from gaps

    Deterministic checks create cited observations; runtime and organisational claims become evidence requests.

  3. 03
    Apply the gate

    Coverage and seven dimension scores remain separate, so an average cannot hide an unknown critical property.

  4. 04
    Sign the handoff

    Bundle the canonical report, signature, public key and verification instructions for another engineer or LLM.

One engine · Three surfaces

Use the same evidence contract where engineering decisions happen.

CLI / Local

Inspect before you share.

Run locally, export JSON or Markdown and create a signed portable bundle without sending source code to a hosted scanner.

p7 inspect ./backend
MCP / Agent

Give coding agents bounded tools.

Let an MCP-compatible agent discover controls and missing evidence without giving it an arbitrary shell or permission to invent verification.

p7-mcp --root ./backend
CI / Policy

Block new risk, not all legacy.

Establish a baseline, annotate changed findings and distinguish inspection failures from tool failures in pull requests.

fail-on-new: high
PRODUCTION-7

Seven dimensions. No compensating averages.

A backend is not production-ready because one area is excellent. The gate keeps every dimension and every evidence gap visible.

01

Architecture

Boundaries, dependency direction and change isolation.

02

Correctness

Transactions, constraints, idempotency and error contracts.

03

Testing

Failure paths, integration evidence and meaningful isolation.

04

Security

Secrets, identity, input boundaries and dependency risk.

05

Performance

Async correctness, timeouts, queries and bounded work.

06

Observability

Structured signals, health checks and failure diagnosis.

07

Deployability

Reproducible builds, migrations, rollback and CI/CD.

Public signed demonstration

See the report before you trust the pitch.

We inspected a deliberately small synthetic backend. The supported checks found no failure, but the gate remains incomplete because repository source cannot prove runtime and operational properties.

Private alpha programme

Bring one real backend. Help shape the product.

We are looking for Python engineers and small teams willing to run one authorised inspection, classify the results and tell us whether the report changed a concrete engineering priority.

You bring
  • An authorised Python backend
  • About 60 minutes across setup and review
  • Direct feedback on useful leads and false positives
You receive
  • Private alpha access and onboarding pack
  • A verifiable report and remediation backlog
  • Direct review of the inspection outcome

Applications are reviewed manually. Applying does not guarantee acceptance, and this checkbox does not subscribe you to marketing email.
