      <description>&lt;p&gt;I've been building Faultmark, an AI code scanner that uses a multi-model &lt;br&gt;
debate to verify bugs before showing them to you. One AI finds candidates, &lt;br&gt;
a second challenges each finding, a third breaks ties. Nothing gets surfaced &lt;br&gt;
unless it survives that process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I ran it on two real codebases as a test.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;dub.co (20k GitHub stars) — 6 confirmed bugs, 0 false positives&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The two most interesting findings:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Missing await on sendEmail calls in the CSV import flow. Both sends fire and forget, &lt;br&gt;
so errors are silently swallowed and users may never receive import confirmation emails.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Logic inversion in GET /api/customers. Any caller passing an explicit programId &lt;br&gt;
has it silently overwritten with the workspace default. Every filtered customer &lt;br&gt;
query is broken.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;documenso (8k GitHub stars) — 24 confirmed bugs, 0 false positives&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The most critical ones:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;handleInitialsFieldClick always returns null. The user types their initials, &lt;br&gt;
the dialog stores the input, but the return statement sends the original null &lt;br&gt;
value instead of what the user typed. Initials are never actually saved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;removeValue crashes when removing the last dropdown option. After splice(index, 1), &lt;br&gt;
the code reads newValues[index] which is now undefined. Runtime crash.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Two progress bars divide by zero when a recipient has zero required fields, &lt;br&gt;
producing width: 'Infinity%' and breaking rendering.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All findings were filed as GitHub issues with the maintainers before this post.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The tool is at faultmark.com if you want to run it on your own repo.&lt;/p&gt;
