anaya 1.1.0

Policy-as-code engine and OSS CLI for compliance scanning

Anaya

Anaya is a policy-pack-agnostic compliance-as-code engine. The V1 direction is a shared deterministic engine with two product surfaces:

• CLI: local and CI usage through anaya scan; this is OSS, similar in spirit to Semgrep
• GitHub App: pull request checks, annotations, and SARIF output

The OSS repository is licensed under AGPL-3.0-or-later.

This folder is the clean Anaya foundation. The older rbi-compliance-scanner folder remains a prototype/reference, mainly useful for GitHub App auth and webhook signature code.

Current Scope

• Load rule packs from YAML
• Load built-in or user-authored external policy packs
• Run deterministic pattern rules against source files
• Emit table, JSON, or SARIF-style output from the CLI
• Ship five generic OSS packs for secrets, OWASP, PII handling, TLS, and audit logging
• Include an experimental India DPDP privacy pack for early policy-pack testing
• Cover 29 built-in rules with Python and JavaScript fixture tests
• Provide a FastAPI GitHub App foundation with webhook verification, PR scanning, Check Run updates, and optional SARIF upload
• Support optional OpenAI-backed type: llm rules, disabled by default and guarded by repository opt-in

Quick Start

python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\python -m pip install -e .[dev]
anaya scan . --no-config --format table

For CLI-only usage from PyPI, install the base package. Server/GitHub App dependencies are optional:

pipx install anaya
pip install "anaya[server,llm]"

Without installing the console script:

python -m anaya.cli.main scan . --no-config --format json

Commands

anaya scan PATH
anaya scan PATH --diff HEAD~1
anaya scan PATH --format sarif -o anaya.sarif
anaya scan PATH --format audit-json
anaya scan PATH --format check-run
anaya test-rule --rule ANAYA-SEC-001 --file app.py
anaya init
anaya validate-pack anaya\packs\generic\secrets-detection.yml
anaya validate-pack anaya\packs\india\dpdp-privacy.yml
anaya packs list

Custom packs are first-class:

anaya scan . --pack path\to\my-policy-pack.yml

Pack paths in anaya.yml are resolved relative to the config file.

Diff scans are supported for local Git worktrees:

anaya scan . --diff origin/main

Repository Config

anaya scan auto-discovers anaya.yml from the scanned path or its parents. Use --config path\to\anaya.yml to choose a specific config file.

Repository config can choose packs, thresholds, ignored paths, ignored rule IDs, and language filters:

scan:
  languages: [python, javascript]

ignore:
  rules:
    - ANAYA-SEC-006

Configured packs, thresholds, languages, and ignored rule IDs are validated before scanning.

Optional OpenAI-backed rules require explicit repository opt-in:

llm:
  enabled: true

LLM rules are skipped with a warning when OpenAI is not configured. See docs/LLM_RULES.md for the rule schema, safety limits, and data-handling notes.

CLI vs GitHub App

The CLI and GitHub App intentionally ship as different surfaces over the same engine:

• CLI: installed with the base anaya package; no hosted GitHub App runtime dependencies are needed.
• GitHub App/server: install with anaya[server]; add anaya[llm] only when hosted LLM rules should run.
• Railway/Docker: installs .[server,llm] because the hosted app needs FastAPI, GitHub API dependencies, Uvicorn, and optional OpenAI support.

Status

This is the Phase 1/Phase 3/Phase 4/Phase 5 foundation from ANAYA_SPEC.py: engine models, rule loader, pattern and Python AST scanners, repository config, reporters, tested generic packs, OSS CLI, in-process GitHub App PR scanning, and optional OpenAI-backed LLM judging. Redis/Celery hosted queueing, retry hardening, JavaScript AST scanning, and deployment/demo readiness are intentionally not wired yet.

Development

python -m pip install -e .[dev]
python -m pytest
python -m pytest --cov
python -m ruff check .

The same commands are wrapped in the repository Makefile for contributors who have make installed.
