AI Writes Your Code. Who Checks Its Security?
40% of AI-generated code has vulnerabilities. CodeVigil triple-checks every line with regex, AST, and LLM verification. Catching what single-pass scanners miss.
Your AI assistant writes vulnerable code. Who's checking its work?
AI assistants like GitHub Copilot generate code with SQL injection, hardcoded secrets, and known CVEs roughly 40% of the time. These aren't exotic attack vectors. They're the stuff that slips through every day because your AI sounds confident about every suggestion it makes.
Traditional scanners use regex patterns and catch the obvious stuff. But AI-generated vulnerabilities are subtler. They look like valid code because they are valid code. You need a scanner that thinks like the AI that wrote them.
That's CodeVigil. Triple-check scanning with regex, AST, and GitHub Copilot LLM verification, right in your editor.

No config file, no account. Just install and let CodeVigil triple-check what your AI writes:
Install
One-click install from VS Code Marketplace
Scan
Type @codevigil in Copilot Chat and your AI checks its own work. It scans, explains, and fixes vulnerabilities
Fix
Get inline remediation with CWE references
What's Under the Hood
AI-assisted triple-check scanning, secret detection, dependency CVE checks, and Copilot Chat integration. Built for the code your AI writes.
Code Pattern Scanning
100+ regex patterns across SQL injection, XSS, command injection, SSRF, path traversal, and more.
Secret Detection
Catches AWS keys, GitHub tokens, API keys, and private keys sitting in your source code.
Dependency CVE Matching
Checks package.json, requirements.txt, go.mod, Gemfile, and more against 130,000+ known CVEs.
Triple-Check Scanning
AI-generated code needs AI-assisted scanning. Three layers: regex, AST, and GitHub Copilot LLM verification. They catch what single-pass tools miss.
Your AI Checks Its Own Work
Copilot wrote the code, now it checks its own work. Type @codevigil in Copilot Chat to scan, explain, and fix vulnerabilities without leaving your editor.
10 Languages
JS/TS, Python, Java, C#, Go, PHP, Ruby, C/C++, and Kotlin. If you write in it, we probably scan it.

Here's what a workspace scan looks like in Copilot Chat. Findings show up with severity levels, CWE references, and suggestions for how to fix them.
Why not just use Snyk / SonarLint / Semgrep?
They're great tools, but none of them were built for AI-generated code. CodeVigil uses AI to scan what AI writes: triple-check analysis with regex, AST, and LLM verification, plus Copilot Chat integration.
