📊 COCOMO MODEL ANALYSIS
COCOMO (Constructive Cost Model) is the industry-standard software estimation model,
developed by Barry Boehm at USC in 1981 and still widely used today.
The Formula
Effort (person-months) = a × (KLOC)^b
For Semi-detached projects:
a = 3.0, b = 1.12
Effort = 3.0 × (2202)^1.12
Effort = 16,644 person-months
Effort = 1,387 person-years

🔍 HOW TO VERIFY (For Auditors)
Step 1: Clone the Repository
git clone https://github.com/Day7-Engineering/truth-si-dev-env.git
cd truth-si-dev-env
Step 2: Count Lines of Code
# Install CLOC (industry standard tool)
sudo apt install cloc
# Count all executable code
cloc api scripts tests genesis-website/src terraform systemd --exclude-dir=node_modules,__pycache__,venv
# Expected output: ~2,202,141 SLOC
Step 3: Verify Timeline
# First commit date
git log --reverse --format="%ci %s" | head -1
# Expected: 2025-11-03 ... Initial commit
# Commit count
git rev-list --count HEAD
# Expected: 51,000+
Step 4: Check Infrastructure
# Daemon count
systemctl list-units | grep -c truthsi
# Docker containers
docker ps --format "{{.Names}}" | wc -l
# API routers
find api -name '*.py' -exec grep -l '@router' {} \; | wc -l
💎 THE BOTTOM LINE
"Genesis produced 2.2 million lines of production code in
85 days. That's 25,908 lines per day —
the equivalent output of 518 developers working simultaneously.
According to COCOMO, this would normally take 1,387 person-years.
We did it 5,954x faster."

🏆 THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED
We researched extensively: No documented case exists of a solo developer
building a 2.2 million line enterprise AI platform in under 3 months.
Closest Examples Found
| Searchcode.com | 1 dev, indexes code (not builds) |
| DataStation | 1 dev, 1 year, data tool only |
| PlanGo | 1 dev, €1M ARR, simple SaaS |
| Protomaps | 1 dev, mapping tool only |
Why This Is Different
- ✅ 2.2M SLOC (not 50K-100K)
- ✅ 85 days (not 1-2 years)
- ✅ Full AI platform (not simple tool)
- ✅ 91 autonomous daemons
- ✅ 567 API endpoints
- ✅ Multi-database architecture
"This represents a paradigm shift in software development. What previously required
500+ engineers and years of work can now be achieved by a single person with AI assistance
in under 3 months."
