Semgrep

Semgrep is a fast, open-source static analysis engine and an associated AppSec Platform (Semgrep Code, Semgrep Supply Chain, and Semgrep Secrets) that finds bugs, security issues, and policy violations across source code, dependencies, and credentials. The open-source CLI runs pattern-based rules locally or in CI; the AppSec Platform layers a managed control plane on top with organization-wide policy, triage workflows, findings management, and an OpenAPI-described REST API for deployments, projects, findings, scans, secrets, and supply chain data. Editor, CI, and SCM integrations (VS Code, JetBrains, GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps) round out the developer surface.

Semgrep publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Static Analysis, SAST, Application Security, Supply Chain, and Secrets Detection.

Semgrep’s developer surface includes documentation, GitHub presence, and 9 more developer resources.
