How to install codescan

pip install codescanai
git clone https://github.com/codescan-ai/codescan.git

Taken from the project's README on GitHub.

Security audit verdict: SAFE · quality 75/100

None of the 42 rules matched — no credential harvesting, no data exfiltration, no curl-pipe-shell installer. Scanned against 42 published rules built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, refreshed every 8 hours.

The quality score combines nine heuristic checks of the repo and its README: completeness, clarity, specificity, examples, structure, agent readiness, step-by-step content, instruction quality and security notes. It rates how well the project explains itself to an agent, not the code.

About codescan

CodeScanAI CodeScanAI utilizes a variety of AI models to scan your codebase for security vulnerabilities. It leverages powerful LLM models to identify risks and provide actionable remediation suggestions. The currently supported AI providers include: OpenAI, Google Gemini, and custom self-hosted AI servers (Ollama, etc.).

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy: 42 published rules, covering credential harvesting, data exfiltration, curl | sh installers and more. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
