Research direction

Edit docs/src/content/docs/gallery/maintaining-repos.md, focusing on the section with the “9x median increase” claim. Start by reviewing discussion #66607 and the linked methodology report for the study’s findings and caveats. Done when the claim is accurately qualified and links to the methodology report.

Description

automation code-quality cookie deep-report documentation improvement quick-win task-mining

Description: This cycle's UX review (discussion #66607, Delight) found that docs/src/content/docs/gallery/maintaining-repos.md bolds a "9x median increase" real-world-impact claim and states results hold across languages and project types, without qualifying that results vary with project size, backlog, and maintainer capacity. Reword to report the study finding plus its caveats, and link to the methodology report. Single file, single section.

Expected Impact: Keeps the gallery's headline claim honest and defensible, avoiding an overclaim that undermines credibility with technical readers evaluating the tool.

Suggested Agent: Copilot coding agent or docs maintainer.

Estimated Effort: Fast (< 30 min)
