Scans vibe-coded apps for launch-blocking issues like leaked keys and data exposure, and reports what to fix first, right from your coding agent.
Key features
- Agent-Native Scanning: Tell Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or other agents to scan with CleanSlop and fix findings where you build.
- System-Level Code Mapping: Maps routes, background jobs, data and external services so each finding follows a real call path.
- Prioritized Reports: Findings grouped as needs attention, worth a look and minor, worst first.
- Evidence for Every Finding: Shows where each issue lives in your code and why it was flagged.
- Plain-English Fixes: Explains what is wrong, why it matters and what to do about it.
- Copy for LLM: Hands any report to your AI tool so it can apply the fixes.
- GitHub App Integration: Scan only the repositories you select, read-only access.
- Expert Triage Calls: Book a 15-minute call with a CleanSlop engineer to walk through findings.
Best for
- A solo founder checks a Next.js and Supabase app built with an AI coding assistant before launching.
- A developer discovers an exposed AI API key bundled into browser code and moves it to a server route.
- A side-project builder verifies that one user's data cannot be read by another through database policies.
- A Claude Code user runs a scan from the terminal and has the agent fix the top findings.
- A team lead gets a short prioritized list instead of hundreds of linter warnings.
- An indie hacker books an expert triage call to confirm an ambiguous finding.
Conan
Conan
Conan is a native macOS app that wraps Claude Code in a live HUD, surfacing every prompt, tool call, skill, and token in real time.
Key features
- Live Timeline: Every command, edit, and tool call streams onto a living timeline as it happens.
- Context Window Meter: Watch the context window fill across system, tools, memory, skills, and messages while tokens burn in real time.
