This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Bomly is a customer-facing, security-sensitive CLI for dependency intelligence. Audience: professional developers, security managers, and CI workflows. Expect high standards: correct behavior, clear output, full logging, and no panics.

This is the main public repository for the Bomly CLI: the engine, auditors, and native detectors (internal/*), the cmd/bomly entry point, user documentation (docs/), release automation, install scripts, the npm MCP wrapper, and the binary-driven smoke test suite. Two kinds of modules live outside this repository:

• github.com/bomly-dev/bomly-sdk (public, separate repo): the contract both built-in components and external managed plugins implement — domain types, plugin kinds, validation, support metadata, and the shared helper subpackages (system, filecache, logkit, detectorkit, matcherkit, testkit). It has its own tests and releases; this repo pins released versions. Any reference to sdk.<Type> below means that module. Plugin authors start there, with docs/PLUGINS.md, docs/plugins/, and the public plugin template repo.
• github.com/bomly-dev/bomly-plugin-* (public, one repo per component): external-integration components consumed as ordinary pinned Go modules — the four reachability analyzers (govulncheck, jsreach, pyreach, jvmreach), the osv / depsdev-license / scorecard / grype matchers, and the syft detector. Their implementations are NOT under internal/; changes to them happen in their repos, and Dependabot bumps the pins here. Auditors and all other detectors are Bomly's own logic and stay in this repository.

Build & Test

make build               # build both `bin/bomly` (builtin Syft/Grype) and `bin/bomly-lite`
make build-lite          # go build -tags "bomly_external_syft,bomly_external_grype" -o bin/bomly-lite ./cmd/bomly
make test                # go test ./...
make smoke               # end-to-end tests driving the built binary (slow, requires network)
make smoke ARGS="-update" # regenerate smoke golden files
make fuzz FUZZTIME=5s    # run every registered fuzz target with a short per-target budget
make benchmark           # run the hidden local dependency-graph benchmark
make benchmark-report    # analyze local benchmark artifacts with Copilot CLI
make evidence            # verify the public evidence catalog (test/evidence/cases.json)
make run ARGS="scan"    # go run ./cmd/bomly <ARGS>
make generate            # regenerate config reference, JSON schemas, schema docs, support matrix, and component docs (binary-driven)
