FossID

FossID for VS Code documentation

Find open-source components, license obligations and known vulnerabilities as you write code. Findings appear inline in your editor, and your AI assistant can explain and fix them.

Getting started

Install the extension, sign in with your organization account, and see your first findings.

Reading findings

Where findings appear, what each kind means, and how to follow them to the source.

License policy

Decide which licenses are allowed, flagged or prohibited, per workspace or centrally.

AI assistants

Use FossID from GitHub Copilot, Claude Code or Cursor, and audit your code in plain language.
