Install

go install github.com/Shasheen8/Broly/cmd/broly@latest
export TOGETHER_API_KEY=your_key_here    # required for SAST + AI features

Or download from Releases. For faster secrets scanning, install Vectorscan (brew install vectorscan).

Usage

broly scan                              # secrets + SCA + SAST
broly scan . --workflow --iac           # IaC + workflow (auto-installs zizmor/checkov)
broly scan . --supply-chain             # malicious package audit
broly scan . --container alpine:3.19    # scan a container image

# AI features (require TOGETHER_API_KEY)
broly scan . --ai-triage                # TP/FP verdict + fix per finding
broly scan . --ai-triage --adversarial  # adversarial verify on critical SAST TPs
broly scan . --ai-triage --exploit-chains  # link cross-scanner TPs into attack narratives
broly scan . --sqli --xss --rce         # focus on specific vuln classes

# Output
broly scan -f sarif -o results.sarif    # SARIF for GitHub Security tab
broly scan -f json                      # JSON
broly scan --min-severity high          # only high + critical

broly sbom -f cyclonedx -o sbom.json    # generate SBOM
broly update                            # update to latest version

Note

zizmor and checkov auto-install into ~/.cache/broly/venv/ on first use. depx must be installed manually: go install github.com/projectdiscovery/depx/v2/cmd/depx@latest

AI Features

AI Triage (--ai-triage) adds a TRUE_POSITIVE / FALSE_POSITIVE verdict, confidence, reasoning, and a targeted code fix for SAST, SCA, IaC, and Workflow findings. Add --explain for a plain-language attack scenario per finding.

Adversarial Verification (--adversarial) runs a second AI pass on critical SAST true positives — an agent traces data flow across files to confirm or falsify reachability. Returns CONFIRMED, DISPUTED, or FALSIFIED.

Exploit Chains (--exploit-chains) links 2-4 cross-scanner true positives into multi-step attack narratives.

Agentic Triage activates automatically for high-severity SAST findings when scanning a local directory — the AI can read related files and search the repo before deciding a verdict.

Vulnerability Class Focus

--<class> flags narrow the scan to specific bug classes:

Flag	Class	CWEs
--sqli	SQL Injection	CWE-89
--xss	Cross-Site Scripting	CWE-79, CWE-80
--rce	Remote Code / Command Execution	CWE-78, CWE-94, CWE-77, CWE-95
--ssrf	Server-Side Request Forgery	CWE-918
--xxe	XML External Entity	CWE-611
--idor	IDOR	CWE-639, CWE-862, CWE-863
--bola	BOLA	CWE-639, CWE-862, CWE-863
--path-traversal	Path Traversal	CWE-22, CWE-23, CWE-73
--deserialization	Insecure Deserialization	CWE-502
--open-redirect	Open Redirect	CWE-601
--weak-crypto	Weak Cryptography	CWE-327, CWE-328, CWE-330, CWE-321
--hardcoded-secret	Hardcoded Secrets	CWE-798, CWE-321, CWE-259

broly scan . --sast --ai-triage --sqli    # SQL injection only
broly scan . --sqli --rce --ssrf          # combine classes

CI Integration

jobs:
  security:
    uses: Shasheen8/Broly/.github/workflows/broly-scan.yml@main
    secrets:
      ai_api_key: ${{ secrets.AI_API_KEY }}
    with:
      ai_triage: true
      workflow: true
      iac: true

Uploads SARIF to the GitHub Security tab and posts a summary PR comment.

broly-app (local GitHub App)

Webhook server for the full PR experience locally — clones, scans, triages, and posts check runs + PR comments. Uses the same pipeline as the CLI.

# terminal 1: smee proxy
npx smee-client --url https://smee.io/your-channel --target http://localhost:8080/webhook

# terminal 2: broly-app
APP_ID=... PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=./broly.pem WEBHOOK_SECRET=... TOGETHER_API_KEY=... \
  go run ./cmd/broly-app

Create a channel at smee.io, set the webhook URL in your GitHub App settings, and you're ready to scan PRs locally.
