Baseline, Diff, and Verify

CODYGIENE supports baseline snapshots for tracking quality changes over time. These features are functional but considered experimental for the public test release.

Baseline

Save a scan as a baseline snapshot:

codygiene baseline
codygiene baseline ./my-repo
codygiene baseline --baseline-path ./codygiene-baseline.json

The baseline file contains finding fingerprints and scores at the time of the snapshot.

Diff

Compare the current scan against a baseline:

codygiene diff
codygiene diff --fail-on new-high

The diff shows:

• Fixed · findings in the baseline that no longer exist
• New · findings in the current scan not in the baseline
• Regressions · findings that changed for the worse
• Score changes · per-category score deltas

--fail-on new-high exits non-zero if new high/critical findings or regressions are found.

Verify

Verify a specific finding against the current scan:

codygiene verify CH-SEC-010#4F92
codygiene verify CH-SEC-010#4F92 ./my-repo

Shows whether the finding still exists, its current status, confidence, and score impact.

Status

These features are functional but may change in future releases. For the public test period, use them with the understanding that the baseline format may evolve.
