Quick start

pip install argus-languages

# Scan any supported project (auto-detects languages)
argus-languages scan /path/to/project

# JSON output
argus-languages scan /path/to/project --format json

# Scan a single file
argus-languages scan ./src/main.java

Python API

from argus_languages import scan_directory

result = scan_directory("/path/to/repo")
print(f"Findings: {len(result.findings)}")
for f in result.findings:
    print(f"[{f.severity}] {f.file}:{f.line} — {f.title}")
