FAQ
Does the badge expose any private data?
No. It shows a catch count (total number of AI findings) and repo state — nothing about the content of findings, code, or PRs. The same data is public on your /repos page.
How often does it update?
The badge is cached for 5 minutes at CDN level. GitHub's README renderer also caches images — expect up to 15 minutes for a fresh count to appear.
Can I use this before PullLight has reviewed any PRs?
Yes. If installed but no PRs reviewed yet, the badge shows "watching" in blue — signaling you take code quality seriously. It's a conversion signal even before the first catch.
What if I'm not using PullLight yet?
The badge shows "enable" in gray — a subtle nudge for contributors visiting your README. They can click through to install. It's the "Powered by PullLight" variant mentioned in the task.
