Vibgrate Help

Vibgrate scans your repositories for drift — how far your code, dependencies, and frameworks have fallen behind current versions — and turns that into scores, risks, and fixes you can act on. This guide gets you from an empty dashboard to your first results.

Connect a repository

Vibgrate needs access to your code before it can scan it.

  1. Open Settings, then Source control.
  2. Connect GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.
  3. Select the repositories you want Vibgrate to track.

You can also scan locally with the Vibgrate CLI and ingest the result — useful for private or air-gapped code.

Run your first scan

Once a repository is connected, open the Scans tab and start a scan. Vibgrate analyzes the repository and produces a drift score, a list of findings, and upgrade opportunities. The first scan usually takes a minute or two.

Read your results

  • Executive Overview gives you the headline — estate drift, high-risk repositories, and open vulnerabilities.
  • Repositories and Applications show the detail behind those numbers.
  • Risk & Compliance is where you triage what matters most.

A drift score runs from 0 to 100. Lower is better: 🟢 low (0–39), 🟡 moderate (40–69), 🔴 high (70–100). Drift is normal — every codebase has some. The dashboard is here to help you manage it, not to grade you.

Where to go next

  • Set a drift budget to get warned when an application drifts too far.
  • Turn findings into fixes under Remediation.
  • Ask the Pulse chatbot anything — it can read your live data and point you to the right tab.
