Secure Code by Design

Automated security scanning for development teams using AI coding tools.

scd is a CLI tool that catches security vulnerabilities before they reach production — running quietly in the background via git hooks and on-demand scans. Built for teams using AI coding tools like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor, which generate code faster than security awareness can keep up with.

Not a replacement for penetration testing

scd helps you find and fix common vulnerability patterns before they reach production, so that professional security assessments can focus on harder, context-specific problems.

What scd covers​

  • 174 security rules across JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, PHP, ASP.NET, and more
  • Taint analysis — tracks user-controlled variables from HTTP input to dangerous sinks
  • Git hooks — secrets scanning on pre-commit, full OWASP scan on pre-push
  • Zero repo footprint — no files written or modified to your repository
  • Exception management — reviewed exceptions tracked in config, never as code comments
  • Audit trail — append-only scan history per repository
