Read and Interpret Vibgrate Scan Output

Read the default Vibgrate scan output: the results table, the findings it lists, and the DriftScore that summarizes them. Generate a shareable report with vg report.

A Vibgrate scan prints a results table and a DriftScore. This tutorial helps you read that output confidently so you know what to fix first and how the findings roll up into the headline number.

Prerequisites

  • Vibgrate CLI installed
  • A project to scan

Steps

1. Produce scan output

vg

The scan analyzes the current directory and writes a results table to your terminal.

2. Read the results table

The table lists the drift findings Vibgrate detected across your dependencies and ecosystems. Each row is an input that contributes to your upgrade risk picture.

3. Locate the DriftScore

The DriftScore, a 0 to 100 value, is the headline summary of the table. Lower means less drift. Read it first, then drill into rows.

4. Reduce noise with --quiet

For terse output, suppress non-essential lines.

vg scan --quiet

5. Generate a report

To produce a human-readable artifact you can share or archive, generate a report from scan artifacts.

vg report

Vibgrate produces a readable report in Markdown, text, or JSON from the scan artifacts.

Verification

The scan prints a table and a DriftScore, and vg report produces a readable report file from the scan artifacts. If the report is empty, run a scan first so the artifacts exist.

Next Steps

  • Need JSON or SARIF instead of a table? Choose an output format.
  • Want one number to track? Read the DriftScore tutorial.
  • Sharing with a team? Push results to Vibgrate Cloud.
