Description
Hi HN,I built LucidShark: a local-first, open-source CLI tool that acts as a quality & security pipeline. It can be used to increase the confidence in AI-generated (or AI-assisted) code.- Config lives as code in version-controlled lucidshark.yml- 100% local; no cloud, no SaaS- Runs 10 quality domains automatically: linting, formatting, type checking, SAST/security scanning, SCA/dependency checks, IaC validation, container scanning, unit tests, coverage thresholds, code duplication, etc.- Produces a QUALITY.md dashboard with health scores (e.g. 9.1/10), trends, and issue lists that you can commit to git

Could you build this?
Yes The tool acts as an orchestrator CLI that runs local linters, typecheckers, and test suites, aggregating their outputs into markdown and exposing them over the Model Context Protocol.
Discussion
2 comments analyzed.
Competitors mentioned: NestJS framework-specific security scanning tools, Claude Code / Cursor with AI-generated code, CI/CD pipeline security tools
Concerns raised: False positive rate on regex-based secret detection in test fixtures, Slow feedback loop when security issues only caught in CI after commit, AI-generated code passing local checks but failing security in pipeline
Feature requests: Framework-aware scanning (NestJS decorators, untyped DTOs, Swagger docs), Reduced false positives in hardcoded secret detection

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a observability & eval tool for Media & entertainment yet.
