Key capabilities

  • Analyze code for maintainability and readability
  • Detect potential runtime errors and logical bugs
  • Identify security vulnerabilities and risks
  • Pinpoint performance bottlenecks
  • Ensure adherence to language and framework conventions
  • Check frontend code for accessibility issues

How it works

The tool determines the scope by checking staged or unstaged changes, loads the relevant files, and then analyzes them across multiple categories like code quality, security, and performance. It generates a structured report with findings and recommendations.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
/code-audit src/specific-file.ts or /code-audit
You get back
A structured code review report with summary statistics, issues by category and severity, specific recommendations, and code examples
