Koidex offers unified search and behavior-based scoring to evaluate the actual code behavior, vulnerabilities, dependencies, permissions, and publisher signals. Its IDE extension performs background scans to flag risky installs in real time within VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and similar environments.

Who it's for

Developers and security researchers who need to verify the safety of developer tooling, packages, and AI models before integrating them into their projects.

Why it matters

Koidex addresses the risk of malicious code hidden in common developer tools by enabling quick due diligence to prevent unsafe installations.
