About the tool status page

The 工具状态页 provides visibility into the health and performance of code scanning tools in your repository.

谁可以使用此功能?

具有写入访问权限的用户

Code scanning 可用于以下存储库类型:

  • GitHub.com 上的公共存储库
  • GitHub Team、GitHub Enterprise Cloud 或 GitHub Enterprise Server 上的组织拥有的存储库,已启用 GitHub Code Security

What is the 工具状态页?

The 工具状态页 shows information about all of your code scanning tools and is a good starting point for debugging problems when code scanning isn't working as expected.

注意

The 工具状态页 shows tool status at the repository level for the default branch only, not at the organization level.

Tool status indicators

The 工具状态页 displays one of three statuses:

  • All configurations are working: All tools are operating as expected
  • Some configurations need attention: Some tools have warnings or non-critical issues
  • Some configurations are not working: One or more tools have critical errors

What information is available

For all code scanning tools

  • Configuration status and health
  • Scan scheduling
  • First and most recent scan times
  • Rules used in scans

For integrated tools like CodeQL

In addition to the information listed above, the 工具状态页 for integrated tools provides the following details:

  • File coverage percentages by programming language
  • Configuration details for each setup type
  • Specific error messages
  • Downloadable CSV reports of analyzed files
  • Downloadable lists of rules used and alert counts

How CodeQL defines scanned files

CodeQL reports a file as scanned if some lines of code in that file were processed.

Interpreted languages

  • Default setup: Scanned files include all source code files for languages CodeQL can analyze
  • Advanced setup: You can use paths and paths-ignore to define which files to scan. See 关于使用 CodeQL 进行代码扫描.

Compiled languages

The 工具状态页 reports files present before running autobuild or manual build steps. Files generated during the build process are not shown. See 对编译语言进行 CodeQL 代码扫描.

Coverage calculation

File coverage percentages respect any files excluded by paths and paths-ignore configuration properties.

Understanding file coverage percentages

Use file coverage percentages to debug and improve your analysis:

注意

If you set up both advanced setup and default setup, the 工具状态页 only shows default setup.

Troubleshooting features

The 工具状态页 helps you troubleshoot issues through:

  • Error messages: Explains why tools aren't performing as expected with suggested actions
  • File coverage data: Shows which files and languages are being analyzed
  • Configuration details: Displays information about each analysis run
  • Downloadable reports: Provides CSV reports with detailed file and rule information
