Production-readiness scanner for AI/vibe-coded projects

Vibe Check

Production-readiness scanner for AI-generated and vibe-coded projects.

AI-assisted coding is fast. Shipping it to production without checking for security holes, missing tests, and bad patterns is dangerous. Vibe Check scans your project in seconds and gives you a letter grade (A-F) across 6 categories.

$ vibe-check scan .

  Vibe Check Report — Grade: B (74/100)

CI/CD Integration

# GitHub Actions
- name: Vibe Check
  run: |
    pip install vibe-code-check
    vibe-check scan . --ci --threshold B

# GitLab CI
vibe-check:
  script:
    - pip install vibe-code-check
    - vibe-check scan . --ci --threshold B -f json -o vibe-report.json
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - vibe-report.json

The --ci flag exits with code 1 if the overall grade falls below --threshold (default: C).

Output Formats

Format	Flag	Use case
Terminal	-f terminal	Human-readable with colors (default)
JSON	-f json	CI pipelines, dashboards
Markdown	-f markdown	PR comments, reports
All	-f all	Generate all formats at once

Pro: HIPAA Compliance Module

The HIPAA scanner detects PHI handling violations specific to healthcare applications -- context-aware detection that distinguishes patient_ssn from patient_count.

How Scoring Works

Each category starts at 100 points. Deductions:

• FAIL finding: -15 points
• WARN finding: -5 points
• INFO finding: -1 point

The overall score is a weighted average across all categories. Security is weighted heaviest at 30% because a single security vulnerability can take down your entire application.
