📦 Installation

⚡ Quick Install

The fastest way to get started:

cargo install syncable-cli

Or see below for building from source.

From Source (Recommended)

# Prerequisites: Rust 1.70+ and Git

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/syncable-dev/syncable-cli.git
cd syncable-cli

# Build and install
cargo install --path .

# Verify installation
sync-ctl --version

Pre-built Binaries

Coming soon! Check the releases page.

🚀 Quick Start

Analyze a Project

# Analyze current directory
sync-ctl analyze

# Analyze specific project
sync-ctl analyze /path/to/your/project

# Get JSON output
sync-ctl analyze --json > analysis.json

# Use different display modes (NEW!)
sync-ctl analyze --display matrix    # Modern dashboard view (default)
sync-ctl analyze --display summary   # Brief summary only
sync-ctl analyze --display detailed  # Legacy verbose output
sync-ctl analyze -d                   # Shorthand for detailed

📊 Display Modes (NEW!)

The analyze command now offers multiple display formats:

  • Matrix View (default): A modern, compact dashboard with side-by-side project comparison
  • Summary View: Brief overview perfect for CI/CD pipelines
  • Detailed View: Traditional verbose output with all project details
  • JSON: Machine-readable format for integration with other tools

See the Display Modes Documentation for visual examples and more details.

Check for Vulnerabilities

# Run vulnerability scan
sync-ctl vulnerabilities /path/to/project

# Check only high severity and above
sync-ctl vulnerabilities --severity high

# Export vulnerability report
sync-ctl vulnerabilities --format json --output vuln-report.json

Security Analysis

# Basic security analysis with secret detection
sync-ctl security /path/to/project

# Include low severity findings
sync-ctl security --include-low

# Skip specific analysis types
sync-ctl security --no-secrets --no-code-patterns

# Generate security report
sync-ctl security --format json --output security-report.json

# Fail CI/CD pipeline on security findings
sync-ctl security --fail-on-findings

Current Security Features:

  • ✅ Secret detection (API keys, tokens, passwords)
  • ✅ Environment variable security analysis
  • ✅ Basic code pattern analysis (limited rules)
  • ✅ Security scoring and risk assessment
  • 🚧 Infrastructure security analysis (coming soon)
  • 🚧 Framework-specific security checks (coming soon)
  • 🚧 Compliance framework validation (coming soon)
