Performs AST-based static code analysis on agentic systems built with LangGraph, CrewAI, n8n, OpenAI Agents, and Autogen by parsing Python files and JSON workflow definitions to extract workflow structures, agent definitions, tool registrations, and MCP server integrations without executing code. Uses framework-specific analyzer classes that understand each framework's configuration patterns and API conventions to build a unified GraphDefinition data model representing the complete agent topology.
Unique: Implements framework-specific analyzer classes (LangGraphAnalyzer, CrewAIAnalyzer, N8nAnalyzer, OpenAIAgentsAnalyzer, AutogenAgentChatAnalyzer) that understand each framework's unique configuration patterns and API conventions, converting heterogeneous agent definitions into a unified GraphDefinition model — rather than using generic code parsing, each analyzer knows how to extract agents from StateGraph nodes, CrewAI Crew objects, n8n workflow JSON, OpenAI handoff patterns, and Autogen team configurations.
vs alternatives: Supports 5 major agentic frameworks in a single tool with framework-aware parsing, whereas generic SAST tools treat agent code as ordinary Python and miss agent-specific constructs like tool registries, MCP server bindings, and handoff patterns.
Maps detected agents, tools, and MCP servers against OWASP Top 10 for LLMs and MITRE ATT&CK frameworks to identify known vulnerability classes and attack patterns applicable to agentic systems. Maintains a vulnerability knowledge base that correlates component types (e.g., 'file system access tool', 'external API integration') with documented security risks, generating severity-tagged vulnerability reports that link each detected component to applicable threat models.
Unique: Maintains a specialized vulnerability knowledge base that correlates agentic component types (tool categories, MCP server capabilities, agent handoff patterns) with OWASP Top 10 for LLMs and MITRE ATT&CK tactics/techniques, rather than generic code vulnerability databases — understands that 'file system access tool' maps to prompt injection + unauthorized access risks, and 'external API tool' maps to supply chain attack risks.
vs alternatives: Purpose-built for agentic systems with LLM-specific vulnerability mappings (OWASP Top 10 for LLMs), whereas generic SAST tools use traditional software vulnerability databases that don't account for LLM-specific attack vectors like prompt injection through tool outputs or model confusion attacks.
Implements specialized analysis for n8n workflow automation systems by parsing JSON workflow files to extract workflow nodes, identify AI agent nodes, detect tool integrations, and map data flow between nodes. Understands n8n's node-based workflow model where nodes represent operations and connections represent data flow, and can identify which nodes are AI agents, which tools they call, and how data flows through the workflow.
Unique: Implements N8nAnalyzer class that parses n8n workflow JSON files to extract nodes, connections, and node configurations — understands n8n's node-based workflow model and can identify AI agent nodes, tool integrations, and data flow patterns specific to n8n's architecture.
vs alternatives: Provides n8n-specific JSON parsing that understands n8n's workflow structure and node types, whereas generic JSON analysis tools cannot understand n8n's semantic model or identify AI agent nodes and tool integrations.
Implements specialized analysis for OpenAI Agents by parsing agent definitions to extract agent roles, tool assignments, handoff patterns (agent-to-agent transfers), and guardrail configurations. Understands OpenAI Agents' handoff model where agents can transfer control to other agents based on conditions, and detects guardrail patterns that constrain agent behavior. Identifies MCP server integrations specific to OpenAI Agents architecture.
Unique: Implements OpenAIAgentsAnalyzer class that understands OpenAI Agents' handoff model and can extract agent definitions, handoff patterns, and guardrail configurations — specifically detects handoff-based control flow and guardrail constraints that are unique to OpenAI Agents architecture.
vs alternatives: Provides OpenAI Agents-specific analysis that understands handoff patterns and guardrail configurations, whereas generic code analysis cannot distinguish OpenAI Agents-specific patterns or understand handoff-based control flow.
Implements specialized analysis for Autogen-based systems by parsing team definitions (Swarm, RoundRobin, Selector strategies) and agent configurations to extract agent roles, tool assignments, and team orchestration patterns. Understands Autogen's team-based model where agents are organized into teams with specific orchestration strategies, and detects MCP server integrations specific to Autogen's architecture. Identifies tool sharing patterns and agent communication flows within teams.
Unique: Implements AutogenAgentChatAnalyzer class that understands Autogen's team-based model with orchestration strategies (Swarm, RoundRobin, Selector) and can extract team definitions, agent roles, tool assignments, and team communication patterns — specifically detects team-level security implications of different orchestration strategies.
vs alternatives: Provides Autogen-specific analysis that understands team orchestration strategies and tool sharing patterns, whereas generic code analysis cannot distinguish Autogen-specific team models or understand orchestration strategy implications.
Generates interactive HTML-based force-directed graph visualizations of agentic workflows where nodes represent agents, tools, and MCP servers, and edges represent tool calls, handoffs, and server connections. Uses a physics-based layout algorithm to position nodes in 2D space based on connection density, allowing users to pan, zoom, and inspect individual components with hover tooltips and click-through details. The visualization is embedded in HTML reports and supports filtering by component type and vulnerability severity.
Unique: Implements a physics-based force-directed layout algorithm specifically tuned for agentic topologies, where node repulsion is weighted by component type (agents repel more strongly than tools) and edge attraction is weighted by interaction frequency — this produces layouts where agent clusters naturally separate and tool dependencies cluster near their consumers, making workflow patterns immediately visible.
vs alternatives: Provides interactive, browser-based visualization with physics-based layout tuned for agent topologies, whereas generic workflow visualization tools (Miro, Lucidchart) require manual diagram creation and don't automatically extract topology from code.
Performs runtime vulnerability testing by injecting adversarial inputs (prompt injections, malformed data, boundary-case values) into live agent systems and monitoring responses for security failures such as unintended tool execution, information disclosure, or control flow hijacking. Implements a testing framework that can instantiate agents from supported frameworks, feed them crafted adversarial prompts, and compare outputs against expected safe behaviors to detect exploitable vulnerabilities that static analysis alone cannot find.
Unique: Implements a testing framework that can instantiate agents from multiple frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents, etc.) and inject adversarial inputs while monitoring for security failures like unintended tool execution or information disclosure — uses framework-specific test adapters to hook into agent execution and capture tool calls, model outputs, and state changes, enabling detection of vulnerabilities that static analysis cannot find.
vs alternatives: Provides framework-aware runtime testing that understands agent-specific failure modes (tool hijacking, handoff manipulation), whereas generic fuzzing tools treat agents as black boxes and cannot detect agent-specific vulnerabilities like prompt injection leading to unauthorized tool execution.
Analyzes agent prompts and system messages to identify hardening opportunities and automatically injects guardrail patterns (e.g., 'You must not execute tools outside this list', 'Reject requests that contain...') into agent definitions. Implements pattern-based guardrail templates that can be applied to agents and tools to constrain behavior, and provides recommendations for prompt rewrites that improve resistance to prompt injection attacks based on OWASP LLM security guidelines.
Unique: Implements pattern-based guardrail templates that understand agentic-specific constraints (tool whitelisting, handoff restrictions, output format enforcement) and can be injected into agent prompts or system messages — uses OWASP Top 10 for LLMs guidelines to generate context-aware hardening recommendations that account for the agent's specific tools and capabilities.
vs alternatives: Provides agent-aware prompt hardening with guardrail templates tuned for agentic attack surfaces (tool hijacking, handoff manipulation), whereas generic prompt injection defenses focus on traditional LLM chatbots and don't account for agent-specific risks like unauthorized tool execution.

Enables developers to ask natural language questions about code directly within VS Code's sidebar chat interface, with automatic access to the current file, project structure, and custom instructions. The system maintains conversation history and can reference previously discussed code segments without requiring explicit re-pasting, using the editor's AST and symbol table for semantic understanding of code structure.
Unique: Integrates directly into VS Code's sidebar with automatic access to editor context (current file, cursor position, selection) without requiring manual context copying, and supports custom project instructions that persist across conversations to enforce project-specific coding standards
vs alternatives: Faster context injection than ChatGPT or Claude web interfaces because it eliminates copy-paste overhead and understands VS Code's symbol table for precise code references
Triggered via Ctrl+I (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+I (macOS), this capability opens a focused chat prompt directly in the editor at the cursor position, allowing developers to request code generation, refactoring, or fixes that are applied directly to the file without context switching. The generated code is previewed inline before acceptance, with Tab key to accept or Escape to reject, maintaining the developer's workflow within the editor.
Unique: Implements a lightweight, keyboard-first editing loop (Ctrl+I → request → Tab/Escape) that keeps developers in the editor without opening sidebars or web interfaces, with ghost text preview for non-destructive review before acceptance
vs alternatives: Faster than Copilot's sidebar chat for single-file edits because it eliminates context window navigation and provides immediate inline preview; more lightweight than Cursor's full-file rewrite approach
GitHub Copilot Chat scores higher at 39/100 vs Agentic Radar at 27/100. Agentic Radar leads on quality and ecosystem, while GitHub Copilot Chat is stronger on adoption. However, Agentic Radar offers a free tier which may be better for getting started.

Unique: Generates contextual explanations and documentation that can be tailored to audience level via custom instructions, and can insert explanations directly into code as comments or docstrings
vs alternatives: More integrated than external documentation tools because it understands code context directly from the editor; more customizable than generic code comment generators because it respects project documentation standards
Analyzes code for missing error handling and generates appropriate exception handling patterns, try-catch blocks, and error recovery logic. Can suggest specific exception types based on the code context and add logging or error reporting based on project conventions.
Unique: Automatically identifies missing error handling and generates context-appropriate exception patterns, with support for project-specific error handling conventions via custom instructions
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than static analysis tools because it understands code intent and can suggest recovery logic; more integrated than external error handling libraries because it generates patterns directly in code
Performs complex refactoring operations including method extraction, variable renaming across scopes, pattern replacement, and architectural restructuring. The agent understands code structure (via AST or symbol table) to ensure refactoring maintains correctness and can validate changes through tests.
Unique: Performs structural refactoring with understanding of code semantics (via AST or symbol table) rather than regex-based text replacement, enabling safe transformations that maintain correctness
vs alternatives: More reliable than manual refactoring because it understands code structure; more comprehensive than IDE refactoring tools because it can handle complex multi-file transformations and validate via tests
Copilot Chat supports running multiple agent sessions in parallel, with a central session management UI that allows developers to track, switch between, and manage multiple concurrent tasks. Each session maintains its own conversation history and execution context, enabling developers to work on multiple features or refactoring tasks simultaneously without context loss. Sessions can be paused, resumed, or terminated independently.
Unique: Implements a session-based architecture where multiple agents can execute in parallel with independent context and conversation history, enabling developers to manage multiple concurrent development tasks without context loss or interference.
vs alternatives: More efficient than sequential task execution because agents can work in parallel; more manageable than separate tool instances because sessions are unified in a single UI with shared project context.
Copilot CLI enables running agents in the background outside of VS Code, allowing long-running tasks (like multi-file refactoring or feature implementation) to execute without blocking the editor. Results can be reviewed and integrated back into the project, enabling developers to continue editing while agents work asynchronously. This decouples agent execution from the IDE, enabling more flexible workflows.
Unique: Decouples agent execution from the IDE by providing a CLI interface for background execution, enabling long-running tasks to proceed without blocking the editor and allowing results to be integrated asynchronously.
vs alternatives: More flexible than IDE-only execution because agents can run independently; enables longer-running tasks that would be impractical in the editor due to responsiveness constraints.
Analyzes failing tests or test-less code and generates comprehensive test cases (unit, integration, or end-to-end depending on context) with assertions, mocks, and edge case coverage. When tests fail, the agent can examine error messages, stack traces, and code logic to propose fixes that address root causes rather than symptoms, iterating until tests pass.
Unique: Combines test generation with iterative debugging — when generated tests fail, the agent analyzes failures and proposes code fixes, creating a feedback loop that improves both test and implementation quality without manual intervention
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than Copilot's basic code completion for tests because it understands test failure context and can propose implementation fixes; faster than manual debugging because it automates root cause analysis
