Can I create my own analysis rules?

Yes, you can create, test, and share custom static analysis rules directly from the Codiga Hub playground in your browser.

What IDEs and platforms are supported?

It works in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Visual Studio, and integrates with GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket for automated reviews.

How are the custom rules implemented technically?

Rules are written in JavaScript and operate on the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of your code. You can define patterns to match and actions to take (like reporting an error).

Can I use Codiga for security scanning?

Absolutely. It includes extensive, pre-built rulesets for OWASP Top 10, SANS/CWE Top 25, and can detect leaked secrets and infrastructure code issues.

Is there an on-premise version?

They are working on an on-premise solution that integrates with GitHub Enterprise and GitLab, but it's not publicly available yet. Contact sales for early access.

What happens to Codiga after the Datadog acquisition?

The product continues to be offered as Codiga, but the long-term roadmap likely involves integration with Datadog's broader observability and security platform.

Technical capabilities

IDE & Platform Integration

Deep integration with VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket for seamless workflow.

Must watch videos

Who uses it

Real use cases, no hype

Real-Time Security Scanning

Get instant feedback on code vulnerabilities like SQL injection or leaked secrets while you type in the IDE.

Automated Code Reviews

Enforce code quality and security standards on every pull request across multiple languages and branches.

Custom Rule Development

Build and deploy your own static analysis rules to enforce team-specific coding standards or detect proprietary patterns.

Legacy Codebase Hardening

Run large-scale analysis on existing code to identify and fix historical security debt and code smells.

CI/CD Pipeline Integration

Gate deployments by integrating Codiga checks into GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Bitbucket Pipelines.

Code Snippet Management

Save, share, and reuse common code patterns across your team or access the community hub.

What's great

Free tier with decent quotas for individuals and open source.
Real-time code analysis and autofix directly in IDE.
Broad IDE and CI/CD platform support (VS Code, JetBrains, GitHub, GitLab, etc.).
Create custom analysis rules via a browser-based playground in minutes.
Strong security focus with OWASP Top 10 and SANS/CWE Top 25 rulesets.

Technical strengths

Unified rules engine across IDEs and platforms using a common AST-based rule format.
Integration with Codiga Hub for sharing and discovering community rules and snippets.

Where it falls short

Acquisition by Datadog may lead to product changes, sunset, or integration into a larger, more expensive platform.
Free plan likely has strict analysis quotas that can be hit quickly by active users.
On-premise solution is still in development; not available for self-hosting yet.
Support response is 24-hour for free users, not instant.

Technical limitations

Rule creation, while simplified, still requires understanding AST patterns for custom security rules.
