#### [`ruchy score`](docs/commands/ruchy-score.md) - Unified Quality Scoring
```bash
ruchy score . --deep --baseline=main --min=0.8
```
- **Comprehensive quality assessment** across 6 dimensions (style, complexity, security, performance, docs, coverage)
- **A+ to F grading scale** with detailed component breakdowns and improvement suggestions
- **Baseline comparison** for tracking quality improvements over time
- **Multiple analysis depths** from fast (<100ms) to deep (<30s) analysis
- **Team quality metrics** with configurable weights and thresholds
### ๐ Self-Hosting Capability
