Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes

Common questions

What security check should I enable for TeamCity login after creating the first user?

Enable two-factor authentication after creating your first user. It adds a temporary code or app check at login and stops someone with only your password from changing builds, projects, or settings.

What limits apply to TeamCity self-hosted without a commercial license?

A community post says that, without a commercial license, TeamCity is limited to 100 build configs and 3 build agents, or similar. The same thread says that seemed far more than enough to the asker.

Where should I look before reporting a slow or misconfigured TeamCity server?

Check the TeamCity Common Problems page before reporting an issue. It points to pages for configuring server memory settings and reporting server slowness issues.

Where are TeamCity general FAQ answers collected?

The TeamCity Support site has a TeamCity FAQ section. It contains frequently asked questions and answers about TeamCity.
