Analysis & detection
Every detection and code-analysis capability tracked for Greptile.
Opengrep rule-based pattern-matching SAST engine plus AI review catch SQLi, SSRF, injection and more
Security Check names pattern-based Opengrep rules and SCA only; no interfile taint/dataflow tracing described
Custom rule can disallow hardcoded secrets; CLI withholds secret-looking files unless --include
Security Check enumerates its scan types; only static secrets detection is described, no live validation
SCA scan type in Security Check reviews dependencies against known vulnerability databases for CVEs
Repo graph surfaces impacted callers and contracts of changed code; not dependency-vulnerability reachability
SCA described only as CVE-checking against vulnerability databases; no typosquat/malicious package detection
Security Check page describes SCA as CVE-checking only; no license identification or policy enforcement
Security Check page enumerates 3 scan types (SAST, SCA, AI); no SBOM/CycloneDX/SPDX export mentioned
Security Check's 3 scan types cover code and dependencies only; no Terraform/CloudFormation/K8s misconfig scanning
Security Check's scan types cover code and dependencies only; no container image or base-image CVE scanning
Security Check reviews pull requests only; no live cloud account configuration scanning described
Security Check is static PR-time scanning only; no running-app or API endpoint exercise described
style and syntax comment types cover naming, formatting, structural consistency, language best practice
Custom rules can cap function length and complexity; no computed complexity metrics reported
Analytics dashboard docs list 5 named metrics; no duplication/clone detection metric documented
Not offered in vendor documentation reviewed as of 2026-09-05.
Analytics dashboard docs list 5 named metrics (PRs reviewed, merge time, addressed rate, bugs, upvotes); no coverage
Analytics dashboard docs list 5 named metrics; no new-code or diff coverage metric documented

Dashboard rules plus .greptile/ folder (config.json, rules.md, files.json) and legacy greptile.json
Most inline comments include an applicable code suggestion
Fix with your Agent hands issues to Claude Code, Codex, Conductor, Cursor, Devin; no native fix PRs
Learning suppresses consistently-ignored comment types; security, leaks, null derefs never suppressed
Cascading .greptile/ per-directory config lets monorepo packages own strictness, rules and filters
AI capabilities
Codebase-graph-grounded AI review posting summary, confidence score and inline comments
