Laravel Secret Scanner
======================

[](#laravel-secret-scanner)

The shared detection engine behind the Laravel Security Audit guard packages. Framework-agnostic: rules, a scanner, a redactor, and a severity and confidence model, with zero Laravel dependency.

It is the core that `laravel-mail-guard` (outgoing mail) and `laravel-ai-egress-guard` (outbound AI traffic) both build on. One engine, every channel.

> This is an independent open-source package. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Laravel or Laravel LLC.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.2+

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require laravelsecurityaudit/laravel-secret-scanner
```

Concept
-------

[](#concept)

A channel implements `ScanContext` to expose the text to scan. A `Rule` inspects that context and yields immutable `Finding`s. The `Scanner` runs a set of rules, isolates a broken rule so it can never stop a scan, and computes a risk level. The `Redactor` masks critical, high-confidence matches in a copy of the content. `GuardDecision` answers whether a set of findings is severe and confident enough to block.

```
use LaravelSecurityAudit\SecretScanner\Scanning\Scanner;
use LaravelSecurityAudit\SecretScanner\Scanning\Contracts\ScanContext;
use LaravelSecurityAudit\SecretScanner\Rules\Secrets\StripeKeyRule;

final class StringContext implements ScanContext
{
    public function __construct(private string $body) {}
    public function body(): string { return $this->body; }
    public function location(): string { return 'body'; }
}

$scanner = new Scanner([new StripeKeyRule]);
$findings = $scanner->scan(new StringContext('token sk_live_0123456789abcdef'));

$scanner->riskLevel($findings); // "critical"
```
