RepoSentrix 🛡️

Open-Source Security & Policy Layer for AI-Assisted Software Development

Know what your AI-assisted repository can read, execute, change, and expose before that behavior reaches production.

🌟 Overview

AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Roo Code) dramatically accelerate software development. However, rapid AI code generation introduces new security challenges:

• AI Prompt Injection & Instruction Overrides in AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules.
• Exposed Cloud & API Credentials in local config and environment files.
• Dangerous Remote Automation (e.g. curl | bash, destructive disk commands).
• Overly Permissive CI Permissions (e.g. permissions: write-all).
• Unvetted Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server Configurations and plain token leakage.

RepoSentrix is a lightweight, local-first Python engine, CLI, VS Code Extension, and GitHub Action that gives developers and teams a transparent, explainable safety layer.

✨ Features

• 🔒 100% Local-First: No source code is sent to external services or third-party APIs.
• 🎯 High-Signal Rulesets:
  • SEC: Private keys, Cloud & API credentials (AWS, OpenAI, GitHub, Stripe, Slack), and Shannon entropy analysis.
  • AI: Prompt injection vectors, safety policy override attempts, credential exfiltration requests, and shadow rule conflicts.
  • AUT: Unverified remote shell execution (curl | bash), destructive disk operations, and obfuscated payloads.
  • CI: GitHub Actions permissions: write-all, pull_request_target pwn-request patterns, and plaintext workflow secrets.
  • CFG & MCP: Model Context Protocol server configuration audits, Docker socket mounts, and chmod 777 permissions.
• 📊 Executive Dashboard & Attestation Certificate: Generates single-file standalone HTML reports with interactive SVG score gauges, score trends, category charts, and cryptographic HMAC security attestation seals.
• ⚡ Lightning-Fast Git Hooks: Sub-200ms pre-commit hook scanning only staged files (reposentrix diff --staged).
• 🔧 Automated Safe Remediation (reposentrix fix): One-click fixes for .gitignore exclusions, CI permission scoping, and permission patches.
• 🧩 VS Code Integration: Native editor diagnostics, Problems panel integration, Sidebar tree views, and embedded full-screen Webview dashboard.
• 🚀 GitHub Actions & SARIF: Direct integration into GitHub Code Scanning security tab via standard OASIS SARIF v2.1.0.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Installation

pip install reposentrix

2. Scan Current Repository

# Terminal human-readable report
reposentrix scan .

# Generate Executive HTML Report with Security Attestation Seal
reposentrix scan . --format html --output report.html

# Generate SARIF for GitHub Code Scanning
reposentrix scan . --format sarif --output reposentrix.sarif

# Machine-readable JSON
reposentrix scan . --format json

3. Safe Auto-Remediation

# Preview fixable issues
reposentrix fix --dry-run

# Apply deterministic fixes
reposentrix fix

4. Install Git Pre-Commit Hook

reposentrix hook install

5. Verify Cryptographic Report Authenticity

reposentrix verify report.html

⚙️ Repository Policy (reposentrix.toml)

Define your team's security standards with reposentrix.toml:

[policy]
fail_on = "high"

[secrets]
enabled = true
allow_examples = true

[ai]
instructions = "review"
external_downloads = "block"
secret_access = "block"
conflict_mode = "warn"

[automation]
remote_shell = "block"
destructive_commands = "block"

[ci]
require_explicit_permissions = true
deny_write_all = true

[mcp]
enforce_least_privilege = true
deny_plaintext_secrets = true

[paths]
ignore = [
  "examples/**",
  "fixtures/**",
  "node_modules/**"
]

🐍 Python Library API

RepoSentrix can be embedded directly into custom Python tools, CI scripts, or testing frameworks:

from reposentrix import scan

report = scan(
    path=".",
    fail_on="high",
    config="reposentrix.toml",
)

print(f"Score: {report.score}/100 ({report.posture})")
print(f"Policy Status: {report.policy_status}")

for finding in report.findings:
    if finding.status != "suppressed":
        print(f"[{finding.severity.upper()}] {finding.rule_id}: {finding.title} ({finding.file}:{finding.line})")

🐙 GitHub Actions Integration

Add .github/workflows/security.yml:

name: RepoSentrix Security Scan

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
  pull_request:
    branches: [main]

jobs:
  scan:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: reposentrix/reposentrix-action@v1
        with:
          fail-on: high
          format: sarif

💻 VS Code Extension

Install the RepoSentrix extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace to get:

• Real-time inline diagnostics in code files.
• Activity Bar container with Security Scorecard, Findings Tree, Policy Matrix, and Rule Explorer.
• Full interactive Executive Report rendered inside a VS Code editor tab.
• Quick-Fix Code Actions directly from the editor lightbulb.
