docs-security-scan

Pre-commit secret detection scans your docs directory to block API keys, tokens, and passwords before they are committed. It inspects documentation files using configurable regex patterns to enforce security checks.

Yes, secret detection in CI pipelines supports configurable YAML files. You can define custom detection patterns, exceptions, and scanning behaviors to accurately identify high-risk credentials and medium-risk indicators in your docs.

A docs security scan looks for high-risk patterns like API keys, tokens, and private keys, alongside medium-risk indicators of passwords and private data. It inspects documentation to prevent accidental secret leakage in your repo.

Yes, pre-commit secret detection works without additional dependencies. It applies directly in pre-commit hooks and CI pipelines to inspect documentation, requiring only a configurable YAML file to define detection patterns.

The best way to scan a docs directory for accidental credential commits is using a pre-commit hook integrated into your CI pipelines. This automatically blocks secrets and enforces security checks before documentation is pushed.
