Reports · Consequences

What the findings mean — for you.

A survey lists what's wrong with the code. The consequences report answers the question you actually have: what does it mean for the business, in money and risk, and what should I do about it? In plain language — no jargon, no dashboard to learn.

What's inside

The condition, the money, and the asks.

Value-at-risk

How much business value is exposed by the state of the code — distinct from rebuild cost. Rebuild cost says what replacing it would take; value-at-risk says what's on the line if you don't act.

The risks to raise

The handful of findings that matter at your altitude — key-person exposure, security gaps, rot in the modules the business depends on — each translated into a plain ask.

Decide and delegate

Each risk arrives as something you can hand to your team: "share ownership of this module", "add a security gate". You decide; they execute; the next survey shows whether it landed.

Illustrative. The real report is built from your engagement's signed evidence, pinned to a commit and a rubric version.

Built on evidence, not on a walkthroughThe consequences read is derived from the same signed CAI evidence every other report uses — reproducible, commit-pinned, and verifiable at cai.canine.dev/verify. The plain language changes what the artifact says, never the number.
