What Is ScanDrix And How Does It Work?

ScanDrix is an autonomous AI-powered code review and AST security scanning platform built for modern engineering teams. It integrates into your Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure Repos) to automatically review pull requests, detect vulnerabilities, suggest code fixes, and enforce custom Drixy rules.

How Does ScanDrix Differ From Traditional Linters Like SonarQube?

Traditional linters analyze files in isolation using rigid regex or pattern rules, resulting in high false-positive rates and zero understanding of code intent. ScanDrix performs deep Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) analysis combined with multi-model AI reasoning, understanding whole-codebase context, taint flows, and architectural boundaries.

What Are Drixy Rules And How Do I Configure Them?

Drixy rules are customizable code review and security policies. You can define rules globally across your organization, per repository, or choose from a library of community best practices. You can also run 'Dry Run' previews to test rule modifications against real historical PRs before enforcing them.

Which Git Providers And CI/CD Tools Does ScanDrix Support?

ScanDrix supports GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure Repos, and Forgejo out of the box. It also provides a CLI and team API keys for local developer workflows, pre-commit hooks, and custom CI/CD runners.

Does ScanDrix Train On Our Private Source Code?

No. ScanDrix never uses customer source code to train AI models. All code diffs are processed in ephemeral, isolated environments with strict zero-data-retention guarantees. For enterprise deployments, ScanDrix supports Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) and self-hosted on-premise installations.

How Fast Are ScanDrix Code Reviews On New Pull Requests?

ScanDrix is built for sub-minute reviews: an async worker architecture picks up webhook events without blocking CI pipelines. That is a design goal, not a measured guarantee — live service state is on the status page.

Can ScanDrix Suggest Inline Code Fixes?

Yes. When ScanDrix detects bugs, security vulnerabilities, or rule violations, it generates precise inline diff suggestions directly in the pull request review comments that developers can apply with a single click.

Can We Deploy ScanDrix On-Premise Or In Our Own VPC?

Yes. Enterprise customers can deploy ScanDrix in their own AWS, GCP, or Azure VPC, or in fully air-gapped on-premise environments with support for internal LLM endpoints (vLLM, Ollama) and enterprise SSO.

CLI Command Reference

Complete command-line interface documentation for scandrix review, rules, dryrun, and authentication.

The scandrix command-line interface provides developers and CI/CD pipelines with local access to the AST parsing engine and rule evaluation pipeline.

Global flags

All commands accept the following global options:

Flag	Shorthand	Description
`--api-url <url>`	`-u`	Override backend API gateway URL (default: `https://api.scandrix.dev` or `http://localhost:8080`).
`--token <key>`	`-t`	Provide Team API Key (`kodus_*` or team key) or Bearer JWT token.
`--json`	`-j`	Format stdout as machine-readable JSON for pipeline consumption.
`--quiet`	`-q`	Suppress non-error output and spinners.
`--help`	`-h`	Display contextual help and flag descriptions.

`scandrix auth login`

Authenticate the local developer terminal with your ScanDrix account:

bash

scandrix auth login

Opens the browser to authorize the local CLI session.
Stores encrypted credentials in ~/.scandrix/credentials.json.

Alternatively, authenticate in headless environments or CI using an environment variable:

bash

export SCANDRIX_API_KEY="kodus_live_abc123456789"

`scandrix review`

Run a code review on local changes, staged files, or git branch comparisons:

bash

# Review staged git changes before committing
scandrix review --staged

# Review the entire working tree (uncommitted + untracked)
scandrix review --all

# Compare the current branch against main
scandrix review --base main

# Set minimum exit-code failure threshold
scandrix review --staged --fail-on critical

Exit codes

0: Clean review, or only warnings/informational suggestions.
1: Critical rule violation found when --fail-on critical is set.
2: Network, authentication, or syntax parsing failure.

`scandrix rules`

Manage and inspect custom Drixy rules:

bash

# List all active rules for the current repository
scandrix rules list

# Validate the YAML syntax of a local rule definition
scandrix rules validate ./rules/no-raw-sql.yaml

# Download organization rule catalog to local cache
scandrix rules sync

`scandrix dryrun`

Simulate a rule without applying review comments:

bash

scandrix dryrun --rule ./rules/my-rule.yaml --base main
