Product Roadmap
Our development priorities, community-driven features, and opportunities to contribute. This roadmap reflects user feedback, enterprise requirements, and the vision for AI-assisted development with precision and safety.
NOW • Q1 2026
In Active Development
Multi-Language Support Expansion
Extend AST-powered tools beyond Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, JSX, and TSX. Adding first-class support for C#, Ruby, PHP, Kotlin, and Go with full symbol extraction and security scanning.
SAML 2.0 SSO Integration
Enterprise authentication with Okta, Azure AD, and Google Workspace. Centralized identity management for organization-wide deployments.
Visual Installation Flow
2-minute video walkthrough and animated GIF showing installation process. Reduces friction for new users and highlights the simplicity of getting started.
NEXT • Q2 2026
Planned for Next Quarter
Enhanced Diff Generation
Smart diff generation that understands code structure. Improved conflict resolution, context-aware merging, and visual diff previews before applying changes.
Git Integration Tools
MCP tools for commit history analysis, branch comparison, and semantic merge conflict resolution. Understand code evolution across branches using AST-aware diffing.
Test Coverage Analysis Tool
Integration with pytest, Jest, and Go test frameworks. Identify untested code paths and generate test recommendations based on AST analysis.
SIEM Integration
Native integrations with Splunk, Datadog, and Elastic for audit log forwarding. Real-time security event streaming and compliance reporting.
FUTURE • H2 2026
Later This Year
Performance Profiling Tools
Identify performance bottlenecks using static analysis. Detect inefficient algorithms, n+1 queries, and suggest optimization opportunities with evidence-based recommendations.
AI-Assisted Code Review
Automated PR analysis with security, performance, and maintainability insights. Integrates with GitHub/GitLab for inline comments and approval workflows.
Multi-Workspace Governance
Centralized policy management across multiple repositories and teams. Organization-wide dashboards, compliance reporting, and policy distribution.
Custom Rule Engine
User-defined security patterns and custom static analysis rules. Write your own vulnerability detectors using our AST query language.
EXPLORING • 2027+
Research & Exploration
IDE Plugin Ecosystem
Native plugins for JetBrains IDEs, Visual Studio, and Neovim. Bring Code Scalpel capabilities directly into your editor with zero MCP configuration.
Cross-Repository Analysis
Understand dependencies and data flow across multiple repositories in a microservices architecture. Identify cross-service vulnerabilities and breaking changes.
AI-Powered Refactoring Suggestions
Proactive refactoring recommendations based on codebase evolution. Detect code smells, suggest design pattern improvements, and estimate technical debt reduction.
