Show your security score in your README

Run one scan, copy one line. The badge tells visitors your code was checked for the mistakes AI-generated code makes most often, and links here so they can check theirs. No account, nothing uploaded: the score in the badge is the one the scanner printed on your machine.

What it looks like

• 90–100: Excellent
• 70–89: Good
• 50–69: Needs work
• 0–49: At risk

Add it in three steps

1. Scan your project. The last line of the output is your score.
   ❯npx @sixthwall/cli initCopy
2. Put the score in the badge URL and paste the Markdown into your README. Replace 87 with yours.
   README.md

   [![Security score](https://sixthwall.dev/api/badge?score=87)](https://sixthwall.dev/badge)

   Or as HTML:

   HTML

   <a href="https://sixthwall.dev/badge"><img src="https://sixthwall.dev/api/badge?score=87" alt="Security score" /></a>

3. Update the number when it changes. The scanner prints the exact line to paste after every full scan, so a copy-paste keeps it current.

Prefer not to publish a number?

Leave the score out and the badge just says the project is scanned:

[![Security score](https://sixthwall.dev/api/badge)](https://sixthwall.dev/badge)

Honest limits

The badge is a statement by the project, not a certificate from us: anyone can put any number in the URL. A verified badge, updated automatically after every pull request scan, is part of the Pro tier in development. Until then, treat it the way you treat a test-coverage badge: a signal that someone cared enough to check.
