Local AI-powered code review

Autonomous code review that keeps your source private.

Stormhold reviews repositories, pull requests, and high-risk code paths with local AI agents, deterministic validation, and human security judgment. The goal is proof over probability: fewer noisy guesses, more findings your developers can reproduce and fix.

Review focus

Auth Logic Access Control Data Flow Injection Paths Secrets Code Privacy
Scope Agents Validate Fix
Local review architecture Creative discovery. Deterministic validation. Private code.

CoordinatorMaps

Builds a global view of routes, trust boundaries, sensitive flows, and likely attack paths.

Focused agentsExplore

Short-lived local agents review narrow objectives without sending code to public model pipelines.

ValidatorsConfirm

Findings are checked against reachability, impact, exploitability, and developer fix paths.

Proof over probability

Designed for teams that need more than checklist scanning.

Traditional scanners and single-pass AI reviews tend to produce volume: suspicious snippets, generic warnings, and findings developers still have to prove. Stormhold uses a local review foundry model that separates exploration from validation so review output is tied to real application behavior.

01

Define scope and context

Set repository boundaries, branches, languages, frameworks, sensitive flows, test accounts, and what should never leave the review environment.

02

Deploy focused local agents

Use local AI workers to inspect specific objectives such as auth logic, object ownership, data flow, injection paths, secrets, and dependencies.

03

Validate before reporting

Promote only findings that can be explained, traced, reproduced, or paired with application behavior for developer-ready remediation.

Stormhold Review Foundry

A repeatable local pipeline for security-critical code.

  • Ingest only approved repositories, branches, pull requests, and architecture context
  • Break review work into focused agent objectives instead of one long-running prompt
  • Correlate source findings with routes, roles, permissions, and data flows
  • Use deterministic checks and human review to decide what becomes a finding
  • Preserve source-code privacy by keeping analysis local or private
  • Produce remediation output designed for developers, not just security teams

What gets reviewed

Security review for the code paths attackers actually care about.

The service is strongest when paired with architecture notes, threat concerns, deployed URLs, recent pull requests, and the workflows your business cannot afford to expose.

Application logic

Auth and Access Control

Review role checks, object ownership, tenant isolation, password reset, invitations, admin workflows, and privilege boundaries.

Data movement

Injection and Unsafe Inputs

Trace input handling into SQL, NoSQL, shell calls, templates, file paths, deserialization, SSRF, and outbound integrations.

Release risk

Secrets and Dependencies

Review exposed credentials, package risk, build configuration, environment assumptions, and sensitive logging paths.

AI-era code

Agent and Tool Boundaries

Review AI tool permissions, retrieval access, prompt-injection exposure, untrusted content handling, and auditability.

Business logic

Workflow Abuse

Look for payment, approval, dispatch, case, patient, client, or admin workflow flaws that static rules often miss.

Verification

Reachability and Impact

Separate theoretical warnings from reachable weaknesses that matter in the actual application design.

Deliverables

Developer-ready findings with evidence, impact, and fix direction.

  • Risk-ranked findings mapped to files, functions, routes, and workflows
  • Evidence and reproduction notes where behavior can be confirmed
  • Safer implementation patterns and remediation guidance
  • Executive summary for stakeholders who need business impact
  • Retest support after fixes are applied
  • Optional pairing with live web app and API pentesting

Source-code privacy by design

Local AI analysis for proprietary codebases.

The review model is designed around local or private processing so source code, application context, intellectual property, and sensitive client materials are not routed through public model pipelines.

Code review request

Bring a repository, pull request, or high-risk feature.

Stormhold can review the code locally, validate the risk, and help your developers fix the issues that matter before attackers find them in production.

Questions buyers ask

Service-specific FAQ.

Short answers for scoping, privacy, authorization, deliverables, and production safety.

Does Stormhold send source code to public AI models?

No. The AI code review service is positioned around local or private processing so source code, application context, and intellectual property are not routed through public model pipelines.

What access does Stormhold need for code review?

Stormhold scopes access before work begins. Depending on the engagement, review may use a repository export, a specific branch, selected pull requests, architecture notes, or a local review environment.

Is this a replacement for human security review?

No. Local AI improves coverage and reasoning, but findings are validated by human security judgment before they are reported.

What do developers receive?

Developers receive prioritized findings mapped to files, functions, routes, workflows, impact, evidence, and remediation guidance.

Local code review intake

Share the repo, branch, pull request, or risky workflow.

This form starts scoping only. Stormhold confirms authorization, local processing expectations, and access boundaries before review begins.

Helpful context

No testing starts from this form. Stormhold confirms authorization, scope, and safety boundaries first.
