summary
Describes a prototype called Gauge that compares successive releases to list PRs/commits, labels change types, and flags risks so teams can automate update policies; uses GitHub GraphQL, SBOMs, crane, Sift and Grype to gather data; finds zombie commits and recommends safe upgrade paths; measured 95% location resolve accuracy for contributor origin, saw images with up to 53 package changes per release, and surfaces zombie commits detected as a concrete risk indicator.
