# Analyzer

An analyzer inspects and analyzes source code in a repository to raise issues which need attention. For example, analyzers can look for anti-patterns, style violations, bug risks, etc. and raise an issue with appropriate severity and type. Analyzers can raise file-level (like, anti-pattern found in a file at a specific location), or repository-level issues (like, 4 dependencies found which are not installed).

The following table lists all supported analyzers and their shortcodes.
