Multi-framework tech debt scanner for React, Vue, Svelte, and Angular. Find code quality issues, get a health score, and track improvements over time.

Supported Frameworks

Features

• Multi-Framework Detection — Automatically detects React, Vue, Svelte, Angular and their meta-frameworks
• Framework-Specific Rules — Native rules for each framework's patterns and anti-patterns
• Health Score — 0-100 score based on code quality findings
• Offline First — Runs entirely locally, no network required
• Multiple Outputs — JSON, SARIF, or human-readable console
• Performance Guardrails — Configurable file size limits and parse timeouts
• Live Scan Progress — Real-time feedback showing file parsing, graph building, and rule execution progress

Usage

Basic Scan

# Scan current directory
npx @coderefine/cli scan

# Scan specific directory
npx @coderefine/cli scan --root ./my-project

# Output to console (human-readable)
npx @coderefine/cli scan -f console

# Save report to file
npx @coderefine/cli scan -o report.json

CI Mode

# Report findings without failing the build (default)
npx @coderefine/cli scan --ci -f console

# Opt-in: Exit with code 1 if any warnings or errors found
npx @coderefine/cli scan --ci --fail-on warning

# Opt-in: Exit with code 1 only for errors
npx @coderefine/cli scan --ci --fail-on error

Monorepo Support

CodeRefine automatically detects monorepos (pnpm workspaces, npm/yarn workspaces, lerna) and scans each workspace with framework-appropriate rules.

# Scan entire monorepo (default)
npx @coderefine/cli scan

# Scan only specific workspace(s)
npx @coderefine/cli scan --workspace apps/web
npx @coderefine/cli scan -w apps/web -w apps/site

# Exclude a workspace
npx @coderefine/cli scan --exclude-workspace packages/legacy

# Disable monorepo detection (treat as single project)
npx @coderefine/cli scan --no-monorepo

# List detected workspaces without scanning
npx @coderefine/cli scan --list-workspaces
