| Best for | - Teams with medium-to-large TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Go, or Java codebases wanting a deterministic, local-first testing workflow
- Developers using MCP-compatible coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, or OpenCode
- Privacy-conscious teams: code never leaves the machine and keys stay in environment variables
| - Developers auditing NPM dependencies within AI workflows
- Teams performing supply chain security assessments
- Users of Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code
|
|---|
| Not for | - Projects in Kotlin, Rust, PHP, C#, Ruby, Swift, C/C++ needing generated tests, runtime coverage, or dynamic proof (only static behavior extraction is supported for these)
- Teams wanting hosted lifecycle management, cross-repo intelligence, or CI policy gates (this repo is the free local tool only)
- Users who need test generation but won't configure a model key — generation requires BYOK
| - Projects outside the NPM ecosystem (e.g., pure Python/Go)
- Environments without network access to deps.dev, OSV.dev, and the npm registry
- Scenarios requiring maintenance by an official upstream vendor
|
|---|
| Required permissions | - Reads local repository files and git metadata to build the evidence graph
- Writes reports and metadata to .orangepro/
- Writes new generated tests under orangepro_generated/ (existing source files untouched)
- Optionally reads OpenAI / Anthropic / Ollama credentials from env and sends grounded code context directly to your configured provider
| - Network access to the NPM registry and external services (deps.dev, OSV.dev, OpenSSF, npms.io, GitHub)
- Read access to workspace lockfiles (pnpm-lock.yaml, package-lock., yarn.lock) for cache invalidation
|
|---|
| Risks and side effects | - Generated tests land in orangepro_generated/ and should be reviewed before running
- AI candidate links and flows are suggestions, never evidence; AI output does not change evidence tiers
- opro generate --pr checks out a PR and mutates your working tree; prefer --base
- With AI lanes enabled, grounded code context is sent directly to the configured model provider
- The MCP server has local filesystem and command execution access to the repository — use only on trusted codebases
| - Third-party READMEs and changelogs are untrusted external content; they are wrapped in tags with _meta flags but should still be handled cautiously
- Depends on availability and accuracy of external services
- Batch requests are capped at 25 packages to prevent registry enumeration; larger sets require batching
- Third-party open source project, not officially maintained by NPM or Anthropic
