Does Brakeman require a running server to work?

No, Brakeman is a static analysis tool. It scans the source code of your Ruby on Rails application directly and does not require the application or its database to be running.

How do I handle false positives in Brakeman?

You can use the interactive ignore tool (`brakeman -I`) to review warnings, provide justification notes, and save them to a `brakeman.ignore` file to filter them from future scans.

What is Brakeman for Claude Code?

Brakeman is a static analysis security tool integrated as a Claude Code skill that scans Ruby on Rails applications for potential vulnerabilities without requiring a running application.

Can Brakeman detect SQL injection and XSS?

Yes, Brakeman identifies a wide range of common vulnerabilities including SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), command injection, and mass assignment issues.

Is it possible to use Brakeman in a CI/CD pipeline?

Absolutely. Brakeman supports various output formats like JSON and JUnit and offers configurable exit codes, making it ideal for automated security gates in CI/CD workflows.
