De-risking Startup Velocity.
techtek-scan is a local-first CLI utility designed for founders and CTOs to audit AI-generated MVPs. It benchmarks your codebase against 20 years of enterprise engineering standards to identify "vibe-code" technical debt, security leaks, and scaling roadblocks before your next funding round.
Your code is your IP.
- This tool runs 100% locally on your machine.
- Your source code is never uploaded, transmitted, or stored.
- Only anonymized metadata (e.g., file counts, dependency names, complexity metrics) is used to generate your Investor-Readiness Score.
You don’t need to install anything permanently. Run the scan directly from your terminal using npx:
npx techtek-scan@latestThe scanner evaluates your repository across four critical pillars of Investor-Readiness:
- Complexity Audit: Identification of "Flat File" traps (files > 600 lines) that prevent senior engineer onboarding.
- Type-Safety Debt: Measurement of
anykeyword usage in TypeScript. - Persistence Debt: Detection of migration tooling (Prisma/Drizzle) vs. manual database state.
- Secret Detection: Scanning for hardcoded API keys (OpenAI, AWS, Stripe, etc.).
- Auth Patterns: Auditing for secure authentication boundaries.
- Environment Parity: Verification of
.envmanagement standards.
- Model Lock-in: Identification of direct model-coupling vs. architectural abstraction layers.
- Reliability Check: Search for AI Evaluation frameworks (Ragas/LangSmith) and "System Prompt" hygiene.
- Token Efficiency: Detection of primitive wrapper patterns vs. stateful orchestration.
- CI/CD Presence: Detection of automated deployment pipelines.
- Observability: Verification of production monitoring (Sentry/PostHog).
- Documentation: Audit of Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) and README depth.
At the end of the scan, you will receive:
- Terminal Summary: An instant "Red/Yellow/Green" risk assessment.
- TechTek Scorecard: A private link to a web-based dashboard on
techtek.iovisualizing your architectural health. - Strategy Path: Clear steps to refactor "vibe-code" into a scalable technical asset.
