codacy-cloud-cli

A command-line tool for accessing data stored in Codacy Cloud. Codacy Cloud is an online service that tracks code quality, security findings, pull requests, tools, and rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to query repositories, issues, security findings, pull-request analyses, enabled tools, and configuration patterns.
Why use it?
It lets an agent inspect remote project results from the terminal instead of requiring manual browsing of the Codacy website.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

codacy-cloud-cli scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Codacy Cloud CLI

Glossary: See glossary.md for shared definitions of Codacy concepts (issues, findings, severity, coverage, tools, patterns, etc.).

The Codacy Cloud CLI (codacy) is the command-line interface for Codacy Cloud. Use it whenever the user wants to interact with remote Codacy data. This is a different tool from the Codacy Analysis CLI (codacy-analysis), which runs static analysis locally.

Setup

# Install
npm install -g @codacy/codacy-cloud-cli

# Authenticate — 3 options:
# 1. Set the `CODACY_API_TOKEN` environment variable
export CODACY_API_TOKEN=<token>
# 2. Use the `codacy login` command (interactive login)
codacy login
# 3. Use the `codacy login` command (with token input)
codacy login --token <token>
# Obtain tokens: Codacy > My Account > Access Management > Account API Tokens (https://app.codacy.com/account/access-management)

# Verify
codacy info

Shared session: The Cloud CLI and the Analysis CLI (codacy-analysis) share the same credentials at ~/.codacy/credentials. Logging in or out with either CLI applies to both — there is no need to authenticate separately.

Getting help

The CLI is the authoritative source of truth. Always use --help to discover available commands, options, and current behavior:

codacy --help
codacy <command> --help
# e.g. codacy issues --help

Use --output json on any command for machine-readable output.

Provider values

See the Provider section in the glossary for the full table of CLI values (gh, gl, bb).

Auto-detection of repository parameters

The CLI auto-detects the provider, organization, and repository from the git remote origin URL when run inside a repository. This means most commands work without specifying these parameters explicitly:

# Auto-detected (run inside the repo)
codacy issues
codacy repository
codacy pull-request 42

# Equivalent explicit form
codacy issues gh my-org my-repo
codacy repository gh my-org my-repo
codacy pull-request gh my-org my-repo 42

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

codacy-cloud-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository codacy/codacy-skills (11 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 100 tokens to every session and 3,964 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
