Configuring code patterns by hand is slow. Now, with one click you can hand the work to an AI agent, let it tune it to the right rules and cut the noise.

Every commit to Verity, our review gate for AI coding agents, gets reviewed by Verity first. Seemed like the bare minimum before asking anyone else to trust it. This article shows how we run coding agents at Codacy, from an hourly bot that reads production logs and opens draft PRs to the checks that stop any of it merging without a human. blog.codacy.com/how-codacy-dog…

Most companies make you wait until the final interview to talk money. We put our salary calculator on our public website years ago, so anyone can see what a role at Codacy pays before they apply. Coverflex just named us Leader in Compensation Transparency at the Prémios da Compensação 🏆 Huge thanks to our People leaders, for building a culture where this feels normal, and for always being approachable. We're currently hiring in Portugal and in the UK: - Account Executive qamine-portugal.jobs.personio.com/job/1222105 - Backend Software Engineeer qamine-portugal.jobs.personio.com/job/1235840 And the Salary calculator: codacy.com/careers

Most AI code review tools can't safely block a merge today. Many teams are either using a strict but probabilistic bot 🙉 or an advisory one that enforces nothing 🙈. Others pair AI review with deterministic checks that enforce the same result every time. 🦍 We compare 14 tools and show which tools can be trusted to uphold AI code governance in 2026. 🍌 blog.codacy.com/ai-code-review…

Apart from no Codex, the top 3 AI coding tools used are probably not surprising. What might be surprising is that 42% of orgs that use AI coding are running 2 or more coding tools. It turns out, in late 2026, there's still very much an appetite for experimenting different coding tools.

This CX software company closed 1,200 security issues, at 90% accuracy, after moving to Codacy and onboarding 1400 developers. Read full article: eu1.hubs.ly/H0xdsjs0

We talked to hundreds of software teams about how they actually use AI coding agents. What we found was surprising: most teams are simultaneously running autocomplete in one repo, letting agents build whole features in another, and running loops against their own infrastructure. One other thing is unanimous: everyone is handing agents more of the mechanical work so people can move up to the judgment calls. We mapped this into an AI Coding Maturity Scale. Where does you fit?

Archiving a repository on GitHub now automatically removes it from Codacy. No more read-only repos padding your metrics or queued for analysis they don't need. Small but real operational win for leaders managing large repo estates. Learn more: eu1.hubs.ly/H0xdslk0

The next leap in code review will come from knowledge bases. The more an agent knows about a specific team's decisions, patterns, and constraints, the better its work. Turning that institutional knowledge into something agents can act on is the cog building the future of code review. Read full piece by Codacy CEO @jaimefjorge eu1.hubs.ly/H0xdmZ30

While many teams bolt AI onto code review, Erik Jost's team at @blackbox_ns built a PR gate that's self-hardening: Claude, Codex, Codacy, and GitHub Copilot review each PR in parallel. Then every repeatable fix becomes a new rule for future runs, unlocking a flywheel of speed and trust in the loop.

Engineers moved from building to orchestrating agents, and human attention shifted to review. But review hasn't scaled the way code generation did. That's where automated quality and security enforcement is needed to keep teams shipping fast but safely. Here's how you can build that system: eu1.hubs.ly/H0wPkk-0

Auditors are starting to ask questions engineering leaders can't yet answer, like which of your shipped code was AI-generated, and who verified it? Here's what to have ready before the audit: eu1.hubs.ly/H0wHZpw0

@jaimefjorge @lucaronin where would you position @tolariamd? :)

Steal this AI maturity scale to guide your team toward loop engineering. 👇 (sound on 🔊) Most teams think they're at one "stage" of AI adoption. They're not. They're at all of them at once. We spent the last few quarters talking to hundreds of software teams about how they really use AI and that surprised us. Most people picture AI adoption as a ladder: autocomplete → prompting agents → "loop engineering," where agents run scheduled tasks, wired into your systems, operating on their own. But the teams we talk to are doing all three at once. Autocomplete in one repo. Agents shipping features in another. Already running loops against their own infra. What's consistent is the direction: more autonomy for agents, hand off the recurring and mechanical work, let people move up to the part that still needs a human. Most teams are further down that road than they realize. More autonomy brings more entropy and runaway cost if you scale agents uncontrollably (we've watched companies do exactly that). Plus real change, like reworking your Git flows to handle looping agents. I pulled the best insights from those conversations into the video. Watch it and you'll probably spot where your team sits.

Verity is now live in public beta. A local, adversarial review layer built for coding agents. It pairs deterministic checks with an independent model, to catch and repair security, quality, and intent gaps after every agent run. Every decision compounds into a markdown knowledge base, so each session starts smarter than the last. Plus, you get live cost visibility across all your agents. It’s free while in beta. Give it a try today and send us your feedback: npm install -g @codacy/verity-cli && verity init Learn more: verity.md

Today we’re launching Verity.md in public beta. If you’re working with coding agents, we built this for you. As AI writes more code, developers and engeneering teams lose visibility into quality, context, and cost. Verity adds: → Gates (AI + deterministic reviews) → Memory

"Are you getting it?" Spoiler: Tomorrow you will.

Maybe someone can help me: what is effectively the difference between using claude code's ultracode (which you can define a goal and it uses workflows with many agents etc) and loop engineering? isn't it effectively the same?

Across our customers' repos, we found several instances where agent instruction files (like Claude.md) contain a hardcoded secret. Be sure to your treat your agent instructions like you’d treat your code. Learn more about how Codacy scans your agent files blog.codacy.com/introducing-ag… s/o @simonkim_nft
