Love this take actually and have been working on this and published this way back 2023/2024. Recently, I've been inspired by Claude-code & Cline agentic flow + tool looping, I experimented the same with tools like file_read, dir_list and throwing in few sast tools, security prompts on Wordpress plugin ecosystem (say with 10k-100k active installation) and scanned around ~600 and to my surprise it yielded ~45 critical, ~120 high severity issues and accounting 20% for non-reachability vuln. Spent around 6$ and ~40 million tokens with grok-4 fast reasoning model and the results were impressive, I gave a try with claude-sonnet but significantly rate-limited despite having 50$ credits from anthropic for research.
