codacy

codacy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from d-o-hub/github-template-ai-agents. It costs 120 tokens per session (1,506 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of tools for Codacy, a service that checks source code for quality problems and security risks. It supports local checks and queries about results stored in Codacy Cloud.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run checks such as linting and security scans locally, or to inspect remote repositories, pull requests, issues, vulnerabilities, and quality results.
Why use it?
It lets you inspect code problems without manually searching through files or the Codacy website. Local analysis can run without uploading the code to Codacy Cloud.

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 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 195 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

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

Codacy provides two CLI tools:

  • Analysis CLI (codacy-analysis): Runs static analysis locally without pushing code to Codacy Cloud
  • Cloud CLI (codacy): Queries remote Codacy data (repositories, issues, PRs, security findings)

Both share credentials at ~/.codacy/credentials. Logging in with either CLI applies to both.

When to Use

  • User wants to analyze code locally without pushing to Codacy Cloud
  • Need to run CLI-based linting (ESLint, Ruff, Semgrep, RuboCop)
  • Scanning staged changes or setting up local Codacy tooling
  • User wants to check code quality metrics on Codacy Cloud
  • Need to inspect remote PR analysis results or browse vulnerabilities
  • Enabling/disabling tools or searching patterns on Codacy Cloud
  • Even if they just say "run codacy" or "check code quality"

Setup

# Install Analysis CLI (local analysis)
npm i -g @codacy/analysis-cli

# Install Cloud CLI (remote queries)
npm install -g @codacy/codacy-cloud-cli

# Verify
codacy-analysis --help
codacy --help

Authentication (optional for local, required for cloud)

# Option 1: Interactive login (shared by both CLIs)
codacy login

# Option 2: Token flag
codacy login --token <your-api-token>

# Option 3: Environment variable
export CODACY_API_TOKEN=<your-api-token>

# Obtain tokens: Codacy > My Account > Access Management
# Remove credentials
codacy logout

Shared session: Both CLIs share ~/.codacy/credentials. Logging in/out with either applies to both.

Local Analysis (Analysis CLI)

The Analysis CLI (codacy-analysis) runs static analysis locally. It detects languages, selects tools, and reports issues — without pushing code to Codacy.

Always use --output-format json for structured output in agentic workflows.

Analysis Workflow

1. Initialize configuration
2. Inspect tool availability (dry-run)
3. Install missing dependencies
4. Run analysis
5. Interpret results

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository d-o-hub/github-template-ai-agents (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 120 tokens to every session and 1,506 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
