Chain suck. Install a chain keeper.

I would have that checked out by someone who knows carbon. The large chunk missing toward the bottom of your chain stay looks like it needs repair to me. Luckily carbon can be repaired and that looks like a good candidate.
Take better care of your drivetrain to prevent chain suck.

You can see carbon fibers which means you have indeed compromised the frame, now will the bike just combust if you put down power and ride it, probably not but this def something I would have looked at.

My honest opintion. that part is usually quite chunky. Obviously take it to a specialist if you want 100% accuracy, since we’re just random dudes on the internet with a picture, but I would ride this without much hesitation tbh.

I think your cranks needed a spacer on the drive side, because it’s chewed also in the front. Find a carbon repair shop, this is fixable.

How does one chain drop do that much damage ? But that part of the bike is pretty solid, I’d probably just find somebody that can co a carbon repair
