General

Flint AI Scan analyzes Python files (.py) that import supported frameworks:
  • Google ADK (google.adk)
  • Google GenAI (google.genai)
  • Anthropic SDK (anthropic)
  • OpenAI SDK (openai)
  • OpenAI Agents SDK (agents)
  • LangGraph (langgraph)
  • CrewAI (crewai)
  • AutoGen (autogen)
  • HuggingFace Transformers (transformers)
  • HuggingFace smolagents (smolagents)
Files without framework imports are skipped.
Support for additional frameworks and TypeScript/JavaScript is on the roadmap.
Yes, completely free. No credit card required, no usage limits. You only pay for the API calls to your chosen LLM provider (Google, OpenAI, or Anthropic) when scanning.
Only to the LLM provider you configure. Flint AI CLI runs on your machine, but the AI reasoning layer of Flint AI Scan sends code snippets to the LLM set by GENERATOR_MODEL.What gets sent:
  • Code snippets are sent to your chosen LLM provider for AI reasoning during scan
  • Supported providers: Google Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, LiteLLM (proxy to 100+ providers), or Ollama (local models)
  • You control which provider via the GENERATOR_MODEL environment variable
What doesn’t get sent:
  • No data goes to SandboxAQ servers
  • Your agent HTTP endpoints are only called from your machine
  • If you configure Ollama (or any local LiteLLM backend), no code leaves your machine
See your LLM provider’s privacy policy for how they handle API requests.
All flintai-cli data lives in ~/.flintai/:
  • Scan results: JSON files in your specified output location (default: current directory)
  • Eval config: ~/.flintai/config.json
  • API keys: ~/.flintai/.env (created by flintai init)
  • Eval results: ~/.flintai/results/ (by default)
To clean up old data, just delete files from these locations.
Reinstall with pip to get the latest version:
pip install --upgrade flintai-cli
Verify the new version:
flintai --version
Your existing config and results in ~/.flintai/ are preserved across upgrades.
