This hypothesis is now complete. Through a structured survey of Toolforge admins, we evaluated and prioritized sustainability categories based on platform sustainability impact and WMCS scope alignment.

What was accomplished during the hypothesis work?

- Conducted and analyzed a structured admin survey measuring:
- Platform sustainability impact (0-3 scale)
- WMCS scope alignment (0-3 scale)
Identified top priority areas based on combined scores:
- Log Management and Centralization (2.50/2.50)
- Comprehensive Tool Health and Status Monitoring (2.33/2.20)
- Simplified and Secure Toolforge Access (2.17/2.33)
- Unavailable Source Code (2.17/2.20)
- Complex Deployment Workflows (2.00/2.60)
- Limited Visibility on Problematic Tool Behavior (2.00/2.50)
Developed initial scoring framework proposal with three core categories:
- Observability (40 points)
- Platform Access (40 points)
- Source Code Availability (20 points)
