AI CODE DETECTOR GUIDE
What does “Several configured signals matched” mean?
In the current tool, “Several configured signals matched” is the label for a combined heuristic score from 25 through 54. It is a score band, not a count of distinct rules and not a probability that AI wrote the code.
The code is analyzed in your browser; submitted code is not uploaded.
How the current labels map to scores
The label is chosen from the total weight of the rules that matched. A score of zero shows “No configured signals matched”; scores below 25 show “Few configured signals matched”; scores from 25 to 54 show “Several configured signals matched”; and scores of 55 or more show “Many configured signals matched.” The current maximum score is 76.
Because each rule has its own weight, a single higher-weight rule can put a result in the “Several” band. For example, the explicit AI-tool attribution comment rule contributes 34 points when it matches. So the label should not be read as a literal tally of how many separate rules fired.
What to inspect in the report
Open the matched-rule list and flagged lines to see which configured patterns contributed to the total. Read each line in its surrounding code context; comments, identifiers, and defensive error text can appear in ordinary human-written code too.
The label summarizes this tool's heuristic rules. It does not measure authorship, confidence, or the chance that a particular AI tool produced the code.
