Know the risk of merging a pull request, and where it lives. Free, open-source CLI and GitHub Action: after your AI review, farol shows the riskiest files, what they reach, diff coverage and contract breaks. TypeScript/React, Go, Python.

About the project

A CLI and GitHub Action that, after AI review, assesses the merge risk of a pull request: it shows the riskiest files, what they reach, diff coverage and contract breaks. It relies on compiler-based static analysis for TypeScript, Go and Python, never executes your code and never sends it anywhere.

Useful for
  • Run farol in CI to rank PR files by risk before approval
  • Check which pages and endpoints a shared component change reaches
  • Detect broken API contracts and find the services that call them

3.3 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 25, 2026, 15:20 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

01530October 21, 2026October 25, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-25 (UTC), 14:28–15:18: 18 → 48 stars (+30). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +41 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 4 days old and already has 48 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Hacker News: “Show HN: Farol – a risk map of a pull request for the person who approves it” — 24 points, 1 h ago.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
