Scan and analyze

Scan images and archives

Scan registry images, local Docker or Podman images, and Docker or OCI archives.

Registry scans let JustScan pull an image from a configured registry. For images available only on a developer machine or CI runner, the CLI streams a Docker or Podman archive to JustScan; it does not run a vulnerability scanner locally.

# JustScan pulls this image from the configured registry.
justscan scan registry.example.com/team/api:1.2.3

# Stream an image from Docker without creating a temporary archive.
justscan scan --local team/api:ci

# Upload an existing Docker or OCI archive.
justscan scan --archive ./team-api.tar --name team-api --tag ci

Archives must be .tar, .tar.gz, or .tgz and can be up to 5 GiB. Use a pipeline-scoped organization token for unattended work; see CLI profile and authentication.
