From findings to fixes: the self-healing PR flow

The Impact Team·August 20, 2026

Finding an issue is the easy half. Impact does the other half.

For supported rules, Impact generates a fix from the code context, runs it through a verification step, and can open a pull request with the change and the verdict attached. You review a pre-checked proposal instead of starting from a red flag.

Best practice: enable auto-fix for the mechanical, high-confidence rules (secrets moved to env, obvious injections parameterized) and keep human review for the design-level findings. Pair it with a quality gate and your baseline improves on autopilot while your team spends its attention where judgment actually matters.
