About the product

What does Code Guardian do?

Code Guardian runs inside AI coding assistants such as Claude Code or OpenAI Codex and checks their commands and file changes before they reach the software. It checks quality, security and software architecture through static code analysis, skills and scripts, and stops or reports whatever does not pass. Four locks halt deletions, secrets in a commit, deployments and database migrations before the command runs. In Claude Code the assistant presents a plan for a human to approve before every change, and independent review agents read finished changes without knowing the plan. The Claude Code edition of version 17.16 includes five modes, seven gates, 15 hooks, 22 detectors, 31 skills and 14 review agents, for macOS, Linux and Windows.
