MergeGuide is AI-assisted code governance. It lets your team move at AI speed while keeping policy, security, and compliance under control — checks meet developers where they already work instead of slowing them down with a separate review step. This documentation covers how to provision your account, install MergeGuide, configure your policies, run scans, read findings, and wire enforcement into your pull requests and CI.

What is AI code governance?

The user-facing concept: govern AI-written and human-written code in one place, without leaving your workflow.

Quickstart

Install the CLI, authenticate, and run your first check in a few minutes.

Install MergeGuide

CLI, MCP server, IDE extension, git hooks, and the PR gate.

CLI reference

Every command and flag, verified against the shipping CLI.

​
Where MergeGuide fits in your workflow

MergeGuide checks code at the points where you already work, so issues surface early instead of at review time: Each layer is the same governance applied earlier in your flow — catch an issue in the IDE and it never reaches a commit, a PR, or an auditor.

​
Install commands

MergeGuide ships as two packages — a Python CLI and an npm MCP server:
See Install the CLI and Install the MCP server for the full setup, including the one-command mergeguide init flow that wires up the CLI, MCP server, and git hooks together.
