CodeMarine Dev · Frontier Models

Use frontier intelligence without making it the final authority.

Claude, Codex and approved security models can reason about novel vulnerabilities. CodeMarine supplies continuous deterministic coverage, bounded context and an independent validation gate.

Novel impact, exploit path and proposed remediation.

Each layer does the job it is good at.

Models handle novel reasoning. CodeMarine handles continuous policy, evidence and validation.

FRONTIER MODELSCODEMARINE

Find novel, context-dependent vulnerabilities

Check known risk continuously and deterministically

Reason across business logic and intent

Track dependencies, agent tools and policy state

Explain impact and propose contextual fixes

Validate patches against revision, rules and tests

Investigate selected high-value cases

Control when code, data and budget may be shared

From signal to durable control.

The model investigates and proposes. CodeMarine validates the result against policy.

  1. 01CURRENT

    Detect

    CodeMarine scans the workspace, dependency graph and AI configuration.

  2. 02PLANNED

    Route

    Policy decides whether the case deserves local specialist or frontier investigation.

  3. 03PLANNED

    Package

    A bounded packet includes relevant files, call paths, evidence and sharing scope.

  4. 04PLANNED

    Investigate

    An approved provider returns a verified, rejected, uncertain or incomplete result.

  5. 05PLANNED

    Validate

    CodeMarine rescans an isolated patch and checks policy, provenance and tests.

  6. 06PLANNED

    Retain

    A verified discovery can become a tested deterministic regression rule.

Send less code. Send better context.

Give the model relevant files, call paths, evidence and policy instead of the whole repository.

Each packet records its revision, included files, redactions and sharing scope.

Provider, model, budget and data policy are attached before transmission.

Current 01

Deterministic hot path

Cheap, continuous and reproducible checks.

Planned 02

Local specialist tier

Compact security models narrow candidate files inside a constrained sandbox.

Planned 03

Frontier tier

Deep reasoning for selected novel or high-impact cases.

A useful middle tier, if it earns its place.

Small local models can narrow candidate files before a frontier call. Their output remains evidence, not proof.

  • Read-only, network-disabled investigation scope
  • Strict terminal allowlist and tool budget
  • Model and weights revision recorded
  • No clean-repository verdict from model output
  • Independent verification before policy use

A model-reviewed patch is still a model-generated patch.

Build it in isolation, then rescan it before merge.

01

Expected revision

The patch must apply to the finding’s exact code revision.

02

Finding eliminated

The original issue is rescanned or explicitly adjudicated.

03

No new risk

Code, dependency and protected-file checks run again.

04

Tests pass

Applicable project and policy tests complete successfully.

05

Evidence retained

The decision, provider and validation results remain attributable.

Continuous protection without continuous model spend.

Run local checks on every change. Buy frontier reasoning only when semantic depth changes the decision.

CONTINUOUS PATHLocal deterministic checks

Run on every relevant change without a model call.

SELECTIVE PATHFrontier investigation

Runs only when policy escalates a case. Scope and budget are recorded.

Use frontier intelligence inside a governed workflow.

Escalate the cases that need deep reasoning, then validate every result against independent policy.
