Codeward

AI-Powered Code Review Platform & Autonomous Refactoring

Codeward is the open-source autonomous AI code review and technical debt remediation platform. Run 100+ automated security, performance, and architecture checks on every pull request. The self-hostable open-source alternative to CodeRabbit, Greptile, and SonarQube.

Verified in a microVM before it reaches your repository

Unlike traditional AI review tools that spam pull requests with unverified comments, Codeward executes real tests inside isolated Firecracker microVMs before opening a fix. Only verified, non-breaking code reaches your repository (86.3% merge acceptance rate).

8 Specialized Review Agents Running in Parallel

1. Orchestrator Agent

3. Security & Secrets Agent

Executes 18 security checks, scans for OWASP vulnerabilities, leaked API tokens, and CVE dependencies.

4. Bloat & Dead Code Agent

Flags duplicated logic blocks, unreferenced imports, dead code paths, and excessive bundle dependencies.

5. Broken Code & Sandbox Agent

Boots an isolated Firecracker microVM for every run to execute your test suites and catch flaky tests.

6. Architecture & Database Agent

Detects N+1 queries, unindexed table scans, and cross-module boundary violations before merge.

7. AI-Era Risks Agent

Checks for prompt injection vectors, RAG leakage, unbounded token loops, and LLM output risks.
