The missing governance layer for AI in software development.

AI is transforming your SDLC—Copilot, Cursor, Devin, CodeRabbit, auto-fix bots. But each tool operates independently, creating code bloat, hallucinations, and ungovernable drift.

SignalCheck provides unified, deterministic governance across all AI tooling in your development workflow.

Enforce code quality. Catch hallucinations. Gate automation. Make AI contributions safe, compliant, and auditable.

The AI tool fragmentation problem

Your team uses a mix of AI tools: GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Devin, Sweep, CodeRabbit, Dependabot. Different models (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini), different contexts (MCP servers, RAG systems), different standards.

Each tool operates independently with:
Different quality standards (or none)
Different confidence thresholds
Different safety boundaries
Different audit trails (or none)
Code quality degradation

AI generates bloat, anti-patterns, and security vulnerabilities. One developer's AI generates clean code, another's generates technical debt.

Invisible hallucinations

AI proposes changes that look correct but aren't. False API usage, incorrect assumptions, plausible-but-wrong code.

Unsafe automation

AI auto-commits to protected branches, triggers risky deployments, creates cascade failures—without proper guardrails.

Audit impossibility

Can't answer "which AI tool committed this bug?" No unified governance. Risk compounds over time.

Unified governance for all AI tooling

SignalCheck doesn't replace your AI tools—it makes them work together safely. It's the policy fabric that ensures Copilot, Cursor, Devin, CodeRabbit, and every other AI tool operates within the same safety boundaries.

Normalize AI contributions across heterogeneous tools

Whether code comes from Copilot or Cursor, whether it's GPT-4 or Claude, whether it's a coding assistant or agentic platform—SignalCheck evaluates it through a single, consistent policy engine.

Enforce code quality standards

Block bloat, anti-patterns, and security vulnerabilities before they enter the codebase. Set complexity limits, file size thresholds, test coverage requirements—enforced uniformly across all AI tools.

Catch hallucinations before production

Require minimum confidence thresholds. Validate against known failure signatures. Escalate uncertain changes for human review. Prevent plausible-but-wrong code from reaching production.

Gate AI-driven automation

Control auto-commits, merges, and deployments with context-aware policies. Different rules for feature branches vs main, dev vs production, low-risk vs high-risk changes.

Deterministic decisions, auditable outcomes

Same inputs produce identical decisions every time. No LLMs in the decision path. Export findings as SARIF 2.1.0 for security tooling. Prove compliance with reproducible audit trails.

How it works

Developers love SignalCheck because it enables AI to accelerate development without sacrificing safety. It's not a gate, it's guardrails. AI proposes. Policy decides. SignalCheck judges.

01

AI proposes contribution

AI generates code, proposes a fix, suggests a dependency update, or triggers automation—from any tool in your stack.

02

SignalCheck evaluates

Contribution is evaluated against policy: code quality standards, complexity limits, confidence thresholds, branch protections, environment constraints.

03

Verdict rendered

Allow (safe to proceed), deny (violates policy), or escalate (use this safer alternative instead).

Real-world use cases

Code quality enforcement
Block AI-generated bloat and anti-patterns. Enforce complexity limits, file size thresholds, test coverage requirements—uniformly across Copilot, Cursor, and all coding assistants.
Hallucination detection
Require minimum confidence thresholds for auto-commits. Escalate low-confidence fixes to PRs. Prevent plausible-but-wrong code from reaching production.
CI/CD automation governance
Allow auto-fixes on feature branches, escalate main branch changes to PRs, deny unsafe operations. Different policies for dev vs staging vs production.
Dependency update safety
Auto-approve patch updates, require review for minor updates, block major version bumps without architecture review. Fast-track critical security patches.
Unified tool governance
Same complexity limits whether code comes from Copilot or Cursor. Consistent branch protection regardless of which tool proposes changes. Eliminate drift from tool fragmentation.
Compliance & audit
Track which tool, model, and context produced each contribution. Answer "which AI committed this bug?" Export SARIF findings for security tooling. Prove governance to auditors.

Example: Unified governance across AI tools

The scenario

Your team uses Copilot for code completion, Cursor for refactoring, Sweep for issue resolution, CodeRabbit for reviews, and Renovate for dependencies. Each developer has different IDE setups, MCP servers, and context configurations.

Without SignalCheck

Each tool operates with different quality standards. Copilot generates 50-line functions, Cursor generates 200-line functions—no consistency. Some tools auto-commit to main, others create PRs—no uniform policy. Can't audit which tool introduced a bug. Risk compounds as tools work independently.

With SignalCheck

All AI contributions evaluated through single policy engine. Same complexity limits apply whether code comes from Copilot or Cursor. Consistent branch protection regardless of which tool proposes changes. Track which tool, model, and context produced each contribution. Different tools, same safety boundaries—eliminate drift.

The result

Your team uses the best AI tools for each task while maintaining consistent governance. Add new AI tools without rewriting governance rules. Scale AI adoption safely.

Technical guarantees

Deterministic output
Same inputs produce byte-identical JSON output. Tested with 450+ iterations per CI run.
Fail-closed behavior
Uncertainty results in denial, not approval. Missing data or ambiguous policy always denies.
Stable contracts
Violation codes are immutable. Policy schema is versioned. No breaking changes without new API version.
SARIF 2.1.0 output
Valid output for GitHub, GitLab, and security tooling. Structured findings with severity and evidence.

Current status

SignalCheck is early-stage and design-partner driven. Core engine is complete. HTTP server and CLI are production-ready. This is infrastructure tooling, not a polished SaaS.

Let's talk

SignalCheck is for teams who are:

  • Using multiple AI coding tools (Copilot, Cursor, etc.) without unified governance
  • Seeing code quality degradation from unchecked AI contributions
  • Deploying AI agents but need compliance and audit controls
  • Responsible for security, platform engineering, or developer experience
