Design Principles
Markdown-First
Reports are markdown files, not locked PDFs. Easy to read, edit, and version control.
Git-Native
Track compliance changes like code changes. Integrate seamlessly with git workflows.
Developer-Friendly
Integrate into existing workflows (editor, git, CI/CD). No context switching required.
Cost-Conscious
Caching, clause scoping, and incremental scans minimize costs without sacrificing quality.
Backward Compatible
All v1.0.0 changes are non-breaking. Existing configs and commands continue to work.
Continuous Compliance
Run scans on every commit, not just annually. Make compliance part of your development process.
