Hey! I'd like to add VulnHawk to the list. It's an AI-powered code security scanner I built that works as a GitHub Action.

What makes it different from Semgrep/CodeQL actions is that it uses AI to understand business logic - so it catches things like missing auth checks on one endpoint when 12 others have them, IDOR flaws, and logic bugs that pattern matching can't express.

Key highlights:

  • Zero config - works out of the box, no rules to write
  • Free for Claude Code or Codex CLI subscribers (no API key needed)
  • Also works with Ollama for fully local/private scanning
  • Supports Python, JS/TS, Go, Java, PHP, Ruby
  • Can ingest SARIF from other SAST tools to go deeper on their findings
  • SARIF output integrates with GitHub's Security tab

Thanks for maintaining this list!

Consider spelling out the acronym “IDOR” (e.g., “insecure direct object reference (IDOR)”) so readers unfamiliar with security terminology can understand the description without extra context.
