As developers, maintaining secure, high-quality code is challenging. Security vulnerabilities, performance issues, and code quality concerns can accumulate. Enter Pixeebot, a tool by Pixee that automates security and code improvements, letting developers focus on essential tasks.

I have never been a huge fan of IoT devices. Granted, they make our life easier, but they also open the door to a lot of security issues. Most IoT devices are black boxes. I don't know what's inside and I don't know what they connect to.

As a developer, I have faced my fair share of security mishaps. I recall times when I accidentally exposed sensitive data in logs or sent a network request over a non-encrypted HTTP channel when HTTPS was available. I'm sure many of you can relate to these situations. We may not be security experts, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't take measures to protect our applications. This is where Bearer, a new security tool for Ruby and JavaScript apps (Java coming soon), comes into play.

We are happy to announce that we completely rebuilt analysis-tools.dev from scratch with more features and a new design!This is a major milestone for us, as it marks the first time we sat down to reinvision what the project should become in the next few years.

This project started as a way to scratch my own itch:Years later, many people still seem to have the same problem. There are more than 500 static analysis (SAST) tools out there; how can you possibly find the "best" one?
Wed Aug 19 2020
Static analysis is great! It helps improve code quality by inspecting source code without even running it. There are hundreds of great tools to choose from — many are free or open-source. Unfortunately, many projects still don’t make use of static analysis tools for various reasons.
Thu Jul 16 2020
We found that static code analysis is a topic that is attracting a lot of engineers, which care about code-quality and solid engineering standards. Our goal is to create an open community for developers that want to take their code and skill set to the next level.
Thu Jul 16 2020
Today we welcome DeepCode as our first sponsor.It makes us incredibly happy to see the backing of our community project from such a forward-thinking company. Just like us, DeepCode thinks that the space of analysis tools could be vastly improved to increase code quality and foster best practices within organizations of any size.

jscpd
Copy/paste detector for programming source code. Finds duplicated blocks in 200+ file formats — JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, C/C++, Go, Rust, PHP, Ruby and more — using token-based detection. Supports configurable thresholds and ignore patterns, git blame integration, and reporters for console, HTML, JSON, Markdown, SARIF and badges. Runs via CLI, in CI pipelines, or as a library; bundled by MegaLinter and Codacy.
lizard
Lizard is an extensible Cyclomatic Complexity Analyzer for many programming languages including C/C++ (doesn't require all the header files or Java imports). It also does copy-paste detection (code clone detection/code duplicate detection) and many other forms of static code analysis. Counts lines of code without comments, CCN (cyclomatic complexity number), token count of functions, parameter count of functions.
objectivecMega-Linter
Mega-Linter can handle any type of project thanks to its 70+ embedded Linters, its advanced reporting, runnable on any CI system or locally, with assisted installation and configuration, able to apply formatting and fixes
dotnet
clojure
coffeescriptRepowise
Deterministic, zero-LLM code-health analysis. Scores every file 1-10 for defect risk, maintainability, and performance from 25 markers: McCabe complexity, LCOM4 cohesion, god classes, Rabin-Karp clone detection, change entropy, and untested hotspots. Adds a dependency graph, dead-code detection, git-history signals (churn, ownership, co-change), and concrete graph-aware refactoring plans. Ships as a CLI, an MCP server, and a VS Code extension across 15 languages.
sem
Semantic version control CLI that provides entity-level diffs, blame, and impact analysis on top of git. Uses tree-sitter to parse 26 languages and builds a cross-file dependency graph with structural hashing. Commands include sem diff, sem blame, sem graph, and sem impact for blast-radius analysis of code changes.
delphi
groovyweave
Entity-level semantic merge driver for git. Resolves false conflicts that line-based merge produces when independent changes touch the same file. Parses functions and classes via tree-sitter, matches by name, and merges at the entity level. Benchmarked at 100% clean merges vs git's 48% on a 31-scenario suite.
