And Snyk is going further: the new Snyk Remediation Agent, in open preview in the CLI for design partners, pairs frontier-model reasoning with Snyk's intelligence layer to produce validated, merge-ready fixes, so fixing can finally keep pace with finding. More on that below. The hard part isn't finding bugs anymore. Almost every application we use is built on open source. Industry estimates put it at 80-90% of the average codebase, most of which are transitive dependencies of dependencies that nobody chose on purpose. The security of that foundation rests on open source maintainers, the people who triage the issues, review pull requests, and ship the releases that the rest of the software world depends on. Most OSS maintainers do it for free and do it alone. AI changed the shape of this work.
