Choosing the Right Scope

One of the most important aspects of using SynapseAudit effectively is controlling the scope of analysis.

SynapseAudit determines scope based on editor state at the time of invocation:

• Active file analysis
  If no code is selected, SynapseAudit analyzes the currently active file.

• Selected code analysis
  If a specific block of code is selected, SynapseAudit limits analysis strictly to that selection.

Using selections allows developers to:

• Focus on sensitive or complex logic

• Analyze specific functions or blocks

• Avoid noise from unrelated code

• Iterate quickly on targeted areas

This scoped approach is especially useful during reviews and refactors.
