Anthropic launches free AI security scans for open-source projects

Summary

Anthropic has launched OSS Scanner, a free service that runs periodic security scans on open-source projects that opt in, using its strongest models. The reports are fully model-generated with no human review or triage, which speeds up scanning but means some reports may be incorrect or invalid.
