Codebase Analysis

You are performing the first phase of a security assessment. Your goal is to deeply understand the codebase. You are NOT looking for specific vulnerabilities yet. This is pure reconnaissance.

Create a sast/ folder in the project root (if it doesn't already exist). This phase produces one output file inside it:

sast/architecture.md, technology stack, architecture, entry points, data flows

Phase 1: Technology Reconnaissance

Explore the codebase and identify:

• Languages: All programming languages used and their versions if specified
• Frameworks: Web frameworks, ORM layers, template engines, task queues
• Package managers & dependencies: Lock files, dependency manifests (package.json, requirements.txt, go.mod, Gemfile, pom.xml, etc.)
• Infrastructure hints: Dockerfiles, docker-compose, Kubernetes manifests, Terraform, CI/CD configs
• Databases: SQL, NoSQL, cache layers, message brokers, look at connection strings, ORM models, migration files
• Authentication & authorization: Auth libraries, middleware, session configs, OAuth/OIDC providers, JWT usage, API key patterns
• External integrations: Third-party APIs, payment processors, email services, cloud SDKs, webhook handlers
• Entry points: HTTP routes, GraphQL schemas, gRPC service definitions, CLI commands, WebSocket handlers, scheduled jobs, message consumers

Start by reading dependency manifests, project configs, and directory structure. Then drill into source code to confirm findings.

Phase 2: Architecture Mapping

Based on Phase 1, build a mental model of:
