Verify security
before you clone.
GitScout inspects external codebases for lifecycle hooks, key harvest exploits, and obfuscated payloads before they touch your local environment.
Scan Before You Install
Cloned a repo and not sure if it's safe? Run one command before npm install to audit the entire codebase for malicious scripts, credential theft, and supply-chain attacks.
Clone any repository
git clone https://github.com/some-user/sketchy-libEnter the project and scan it
cd sketchy-libbunx gitscout-cli . No install needed — bunx runs it instantly in a sandbox.
Review the verdict, then decide
If GitScout flags threats — inspect them. If it's clean — npm install with confidence.

Pre-clone Address Bar Redirect
Audit any public codebase without downloading scripts or launching terminals. Simply replace github.com in the URL with meadityazzzz.in.
https://github.com/expressjs/expresshttps://meadityazzzz.in/expressjs/expressSecurity Scope Coverage
Scans npm scripts for dynamic curl downloads, pipeline commands, or native binding compilation exploits.
Intercepts actions scanning local filesystem folders for AWS, NPM, SSH, SSH keys, or active environment variables.
Audits codebases for hex/base64 strings, runtime string builds, and variable-length packers hiding payloads.
Performs byte scans to flag bidirectional overrides and homoglyphs hiding logic in comments.
Compares dependency arrays against the top 100 package sets to discover fake/spoofed references.
Finds dynamic URLs pointing to Webhook site endpoints, tracking APIs, or outbound beacons.
Scans package-lock.json and yarn.lock to find known malicious package ranges (axios, node-ipc, event-stream) and untrusted URL imports.
