For a refactoring project I've built the reports of the tool into the CI pipeline of our repository. On every PR it will create a fixed post with the current branches complexity scores comparing it to the target branch and reporting a trend.

It may not be perfect in its outputs but I like it for bringing attention to arising (or still existing) hotspots.

I've found that the output is - at least on a high level - aligning well with my inner expectation of what files deserve work and which ones are fine. Additionally it's given us measurable outcomes for code refactoring which non technical people like as well.
