differential-review

A security-focused differential code review analyzes changes in PRs, commits, and diffs to detect regressions. You need it during patches, migrations, or pull requests to calculate blast radius, check test coverage, and prevent security vulnerabilities using git history context.

To perform a differential review, provide a diff or PR reference alongside a baseline comparison branch. The tool runs a phase-based workflow from triage to reporting, adapting analysis depth to codebase size and generating a markdown audit report with line references and risk levels.

Yes, adaptive code analysis scales for large codebases by automatically adjusting the analysis depth based on repository size classified as SMALL, MEDIUM, or LARGE. This ensures efficient security reviews and blast-radius calculations without overwhelming your environment or sacrificing audit-ready output.

The best way to generate an audit-ready report is running a differential review that integrates git history for context and computes blast radius. It outputs a comprehensive markdown report documenting findings with precise line references, commit references, and risk levels for stakeholder remediation.

Yes, differential analysis explicitly checks test coverage as part of its security regression workflow. It combines coverage data with evidence-backed findings and blast-radius calculations to triage risks, ensuring changes are validated before generating the final markdown audit report.

Blast radius calculation identifies the potential impact scope of code changes, enabling risk-based triage to prioritize remediation. Unlike standard static analysis, it uses git history context and adaptive depth to focus specifically on differential changes and prevent regressions in modified commits and diffs.
