Jordan Colbeth developed and maintained static analysis and code quality tooling for the stinb/plugins repository, focusing on safety-critical standards such as MISRA C and AUTOSAR. Over nine months, Jordan delivered features like Ada language support, scope-aware violation detection, and Clang-based static analysis integration, while also refining reporting, documentation, and test infrastructure. Using C++, Python, and regular expressions, Jordan improved robustness by addressing edge cases, reducing false positives, and enhancing maintainability through defensive programming and code refactoring. The work demonstrated depth in backend development and static analysis, resulting in more reliable, accurate, and maintainable code quality checks across multiple languages.

July 2025 a focused sprint delivering static analysis improvements in the stinb/plugins repository. Key work targeted C/C++ usage detection and MISRA compliance, reducing false positives and aligning results with MISRA guidelines. This included adjusting the analysis to exclude certain set-by-init references for non-volatile PODs, addressing shadow-identifier false positives in subsequent try-catch statements, and reverting a change to MISRA08_0-1-4 behavior to preserve correct semantics. In addition, documentation improvements fixed typos in C/C++ identifier test files to improve maintainability. The combined work enhances safety-critical code quality, shortens feedback loops for developers, and reduces risk in code audits by improving analysis accuracy and clarity.

May 2025 delivered targeted improvements to violation detection and test infrastructure in stinb/plugins. Key changes include scope-aware M2-10-1 validation, input normalization to ensure consistent reporting, removal of a false positive in A12-0-1, and enhanced A16-2-2 testing practices. These efforts reduced false positives, increased detection precision, and improved test clarity and performance, accelerating feedback cycles for developers and downstream validation pipelines.
