Real-world evidence

OSS Case Studies

Five real pull requests from the most-downloaded .NET open-source libraries. Each one contains a finding that GauntletCI would block before merge - a swallowed exception, a broken public API, a concurrency hazard, or hardcoded configuration.

Why these projects?

These are not contrived examples. Each finding comes from a real pull request to a library with hundreds of millions of downloads. The bugs listed are not theoretical - they represent classes of production incident that have affected downstream applications.

GauntletCI analyzes the diff, not the full codebase. These findings would have been produced in seconds, deterministically, on every pull request against these repositories.
