Library

import { scanFiles } from '@merchantguard/guardscan';

const result = scanFiles([
  { name: 'index.ts', content: 'const key = "sk-proj-abc123..."' }
]);

console.log(result.securityScore); // 0-100
console.log(result.status);        // 'red' | 'yellow' | 'green'
console.log(result.findings);      // ScanFinding[]

scanFiles(files)

Scans an array of { name: string, content: string } objects.

Returns a ScanResult:

interface ScanResult {
  scanId: string;
  status: 'red' | 'yellow' | 'green';
  statusLabel: string;
  securityScore: number;        // 0-100
  filesScanned: number;
  linesScanned: number;
  findings: ScanFinding[];
  summary: {
    total: number;
    critical: number;
    high: number;
    medium: number;
    low: number;
  };
  paymentContext: PaymentContext;
}
