Change Monitoring Systems

### 1. File-Level Monitoring
```python
def monitor_file_changes():
    """Track individual file modifications"""
    changes = {
        "timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat(),
        "files_modified": [],
        "files_created": [],
        "files_deleted": [],
        "significance_score": 0.0,
        "categories": []
    }

    # Monitor file system changes
    for file_path in get_modified_files():
        change = {
            "path": file_path,
            "type": "modified",
            "size_delta": calculate_size_change(file_path),
            "lines_added": count_added_lines(file_path),
            "lines_removed": count_removed_lines(file_path),
            "significance": assess_file_significance(file_path)

    update_category_indexes(change_data)
```

    if query_params.get("date_range"):
        filters.append(date_range_filter(query_params["date_range"]))

    if query_params.get("categories"):
        filters.append(category_filter(query_params["categories"]))

    if query_params.get("significance_threshold"):
        filters.append(significance_filter(query_params["significance_threshold"]))

    if query_params.get("file_pattern"):
        filters.append(file_pattern_filter(query_params["file_pattern"]))

    if query_params.get("author"):
        filters.append(author_filter(query_params["author"]))

if issues:
    display_compliance_alerts(issues)
else:
    display_compliance_status("compliant")
```

### Example 3: Project Health Analysis
```python
# Analyze project health based on recent changes
