Automated Sourcegraph Code Health Digest
Every Monday, WebRun opens Sourcegraph, runs your saved searches for TODOs, deprecated calls, and flagged patterns across every repository, posts a code health digest to Microsoft Teams, and books a cleanup review slot on Google Calendar whenever a pattern's count climbs past your threshold.
How do I track code health trends across a large codebase automatically?
WebRun runs your saved Sourcegraph searches across every repository each Monday, counting TODOs, deprecated calls, and other flagged patterns and comparing them to last week. It posts the results as a code health digest in Microsoft Teams and books a cleanup review on Google Calendar whenever a pattern's count crosses your threshold, so tech debt gets tracked instead of forgotten.
- Tech debt trends surface every Monday instead of at incident time
- A growing pattern gets a review slot booked automatically
- Every repository gets checked, not just the ones people remember

Questions, answered
Does it fix or refactor the flagged code?
No. WebRun only counts and reports matches. Fixing or refactoring code always stays a manual decision for your engineers.
What counts as a threshold worth booking a meeting for?
Whatever growth you set, for example a pattern's count rising by more than a set amount from one week to the next.
Can I change which searches it runs?
Yes. Update the saved searches in Sourcegraph and the next run uses whatever you've saved, no other setup needed.
