Know what's installed.
Know what's vulnerable.

pkgprobe scans your local filesystem for software projects, discovers every dependency — including transitive ones — and surfaces known vulnerabilities in seconds. Native macOS app. No cloud. No signup.

One tool. Two jobs.

pkgprobe scans what's actually installed on the machine — so security teams can hold the line on policy while developers stay unblocked.

For Security Teams

Enforce posture across the fleet

  • Audit the real inventory. See every dependency actually installed on each machine — including transitive and manually-installed packages that never touched git.
  • Enforce registry & license policy. Ship an admin policy file users can't disable: approved registries, allowed licenses, severity ceilings — evaluated on every scan.
  • Get SBOMs out automatically. Export CycloneDX 1.6 and SPDX 2.3, and stream structured audit logs into Splunk, Datadog, or any SIEM.

For Developers

Find and fix CVEs locally

  • Scan in seconds, offline. Point pkgprobe at your dev folder and get a full dependency inventory across every project and lockfile — no cloud, no signup.
  • See what actually matters. CVE severity, EPSS score, and CISA KEV status inline, each with the exact fixed version to upgrade to.
  • Fix in one click. Apply the fix from the GUI, re-scan, and watch the finding clear — right on your machine.

Built for the local machine

Unlike cloud scanners that only see what's committed, pkgprobe scans what's actually installed — catching version drift, manual installs, and projects that aren't in git.

📦

Multi-ecosystem

Node.js (npm, yarn, pnpm), .NET (NuGet), PHP (Composer) — with Python, Java, Rust, Ruby, and Go on the roadmap.

Instant, offline scanning

No cloud dependency. Scans run locally in seconds. Vulnerability data is cached with configurable TTL.

🔒

Admin policy override

Deploy a system-level policy file that users cannot disable. The GUI shows it as read-only with "Managed by your organization".

📊

Structured audit logging

Every scan, policy evaluation, and config change is logged as structured JSON. Feed it into Splunk, Datadog, or any SIEM.

🌐

Registry enforcement

Ensure every dependency comes from an approved registry. Flag packages that bypassed your private Artifactory or mirror.

Scheduled scanning

Set an interval (1h, 4h, 12h, daily) and pkgprobe re-scans automatically — catching new CVEs as they drop.

See it in action

Scan a project, surface a CVE, and fix it — without leaving the app. The loop below is a lightweight preview; full screenshots and a recorded demo land with the next release.

Preview visuals. Real screenshots and a recorded walkthrough replace these at launch.
