is code the only output of an engineer?

not everything is committed in a VCS: you have documentation, architecture, RFC etc etc depending on the size of the company and seniority of the employee.

That stuff is typically in a VCS.

I don’t think it’s an absolute rule that no commits means someone isn’t developing. But it’s probably a reason to have a conversation.
