The Scan Log.

Practical field notes on scanning APIs, safer integrations, useful evidence, and the decisions behind the results.

A practical architecture for scan jobs, evidence, retries, and policy decisions—without turning uncertainty into a green check.

Read analysis status, per-engine outcomes, and coverage gaps before turning a malware scanner report into an application decision.

Separate exact matches, transformed copies, and visual similarity before drawing conclusions about an image’s origin.

Move beyond endpoint counts with a scoped test plan for identities, object ownership, resource limits, and reproducible fixes.

Inspect untrusted content, evaluate tool requests, and test the boundaries that matter in a language-model application.

Combine validation, private staging, bounded inspection, and controlled release instead of trusting a filename or a single scan.

Build a useful test set, examine costly errors, and turn model scores into review decisions that people can understand.

Keep the engine private, the signatures observable, and incomplete inspection separate from a release decision.

Build a repository review process that distinguishes finding types and turns a scan alert into a verified repair.

Read location fields and timestamps carefully, preserve the original, and verify the metadata in the final published file.
