Guardvibe Tools (39)
check_code
Analyze a code snippet for security issues
check_project
Scan multiple files with security scoring (A-F)
scan_directory
Scan a project directory from disk
scan_staged
Pre-commit scan of git-staged files — **diff-aware** (blocks only newly-staged lines; `diff_aware:false` for whole files)
scan_dependencies
Check all dependencies for known CVEs (OSV) — annotates each vulnerable package with **reachability** (is it actually imported in your source?)

AI Distiller MCP Tools (16)
distill_file
Extracts essential code structure from a single file - the core functionality of AI Distiller. Returns clean, structured code signatures optimized for AI context windows.
USAGE: Essential for providing accurate code context to AI assistants. Automatically detects language and extracts API signatures, types, and structure while removing unnecessary implementation details.
distill_directory
Extracts essential code structure from entire directories - the core functionality of AI Distiller. Processes all supported programming languages and returns structured API/code signatures optimized for AI context windows.
USAGE: Perfect for understanding codebases, API discovery, and providing accurate code context to AI assistants. Supports filtering by visibility levels, file patterns, and content types.
distill_with_dependencies
Analyzes call dependencies and returns distilled code of only relevant methods/classes up to specified depth. This advanced feature traces function/method calls across files and includes only the code that is actually called from the target file, creating focused distillations for deep code analysis.
USAGE: Perfect for understanding code execution flows, impact analysis, and creating focused context for AI assistants. Particularly useful for large codebases where you need to understand how specific functionality works across multiple files.
aid_hunt_bugs
