Built an open-source static analyzer for AI agent code. Not evals, not runtime monitoring — actual source code analysis. Pointed it at 53 popular repos (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenHands, MetaGPT, etc). Results: 42 out of 53 had at least one finding 20 had CRITICAL severity Most common: missing human oversight on tool calls that execute code Runner up: agent loops with no exit condition The scanner builds an intermediate representation of agent logic (like LLVM but for agents), then runs taint tracking from user input → LLM call → tool execution. Works with 11 frameworks. No AI in the scanner. Apache 2.0. Try it: app.inkog.io/scan — paste any GitHub URL, 60 seconds, no signup. GitHub: github.com/inkog-io/inkog Feedback welcome — what patterns are we missing?
