API key hardcoded in source file
End-to-end flow
From messy commit to clean patch.
Elytra turns risky diffs into reviewable fixes before they reach production.
Platform
One engine. Four loops.
Every commit runs through the full pipeline — automatically.
Scan
Parse code and detect risky patterns across every changed file.
Score
Prioritize by severity, confidence, and cleanup impact.
Fix
Generate safe, structured patches that are easy to review and commit.
Verify
Re-scan changes before they ship to confirm issues are resolved.
Under the hood
Pipeline internals
Pure static analysis. No runtime agents, no data collection, no internet required.
Parse
Git diff → AST extraction. Language detection across 8 runtimes. Hunk isolation to exact line ranges.
Detect
120+ rules evaluated per hunk. Confidence scoring via AST + regex hybrid engine. Dedup and rank.
Score
CVSS-inspired severity weighting. Cumulative penalty model with per-finding confidence thresholds.
Fix
Context-aware patch generation. Structured diffs, not full rewrites. One-click commit integration.
Detection coverage
What Elytra catches
120+ rules across security and code cleanup. Every finding comes with a fix.
Hardcoded Secrets
API keys, tokens, passwords, and private keys hardcoded in source files.
Injection Risks
SQL, command, and template injection via unsanitized input across query patterns.
Auth Mistakes
Missing auth checks, weak JWT configs, insecure session and cookie handling.
Unsafe Logic
eval(), dangerouslySetInnerHTML, prototype pollution, and unsafe deserialization.
Messy Patterns
Dead code, duplicated logic, deep nesting, and structural issues that slow teams down.
Code Quality
Unused vars, N+1 queries, missing error handling, and complexity hotspots.
Privacy
Local-first by design
Your source code is your most sensitive asset. Elytra never asks you to upload it.
No code upload
The CLI runs entirely on your machine. Source code never leaves your environment by default.
Air-gap compatible
Static analysis runs fully offline. Works in locked-down environments without internet access.
Open engine
The detection engine is open source. Inspect every rule, fork it, or write your own.
“Run npx elytrasec scan . — results in seconds, nothing uploaded, no account required.”
