GitHub Dependabot — free
Keep this one.
Continuous alerts for known vulnerable dependencies across every repo, from GitHub, for $0. That's the only scanner you need — because the other kind of checking moves inside the Job.

Do you still need Qodo?
No. Qodo generates tests and reviews for quality. A FalseGreen Job requires tests and proofs, runs whatever the project has, and decides whether the code does what you asked.
What Qodo does
What it does well.
- Generates tests for uncovered behavior
- Reviews changes for consistency with stated requirements
- Works across many languages and IDEs
The replacement
Free Dependabot + one FalseGreen Job covers Qodo.
FalseGreen Job — before merge
This replaces Qodo.
Keep the tests your AI coding agent writes; let machines adjudicate them. Coverage becomes evidence in a report instead of a metric on a dashboard.
