Phase 4: GitHub PR Integration + Team Collaboration

Date: 2025-10-21 Status: 🚀 READY TO START Strategic Goal: Build B2B competitive moat through GitHub automation and team features

Strategic Rationale

Why Phase 4 is Critical

From CLAUDE.md Strategic Pivot: - ✅ Phase 1-3 Complete: 79+ security checks (competitive with free tools) - ❌ No revenue yet: Individual developers won't pay for static analysis - ✅ Market Opportunity: Teams WILL pay for automated PR reviews - ✅ Competitive Moat: GitHub integration + team learning is defensible

What We're Building: - NOT: More security checks (already have 79+, won't create revenue) - YES: GitHub PR automation (teams pay €99-299/month for this) - YES: Team dashboard (multi-user accounts, analytics, ROI tracking) - YES: Auto-fix PR creation (killer feature for Month 5-6)

Target Outcome: - Launch Team tier (€99/month) by end of Phase 4 - First paying customer within 2 weeks of launch - Foundation for Enterprise tier (€299/month)

Phase 4 Architecture

4.1 GitHub App Integration (Week 1-2)

Goal: Automatic PR analysis when developers create pull requests

Step 1: GitHub App Setup (Day 1)

Tasks: 1. Create GitHub App in GitHub Developer Settings - App name: "CodeSlick Security Scanner" - Webhook URL: https://codeslick.vercel.app/api/github/webhook - Permissions: Read repository content, write PR comments, write status checks - Events: Pull request (opened, synchronize)

  1. Store credentials in environment variables: 

    # .env.local
GITHUB_APP_ID=123456
GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY="-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----..."
GITHUB_APP_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your_webhook_secret
GITHUB_APP_CLIENT_ID=Iv1.xxx
GITHUB_APP_CLIENT_SECRET=xxx

  2. Create installation flow: 

    // src/app/api/github/install/route.ts
export async function GET(req: Request) {
  const { searchParams } = new URL(req.url);
  const code = searchParams.get('code');
  const installationId = searchParams.get('installation_id');

  // Exchange code for access token
  const octokit = new Octokit({ auth: code });

  // Store installation in database
  await db.installations.create({
    installationId,
    accountType: 'organization', // or 'user'
    installedAt: new Date()
  });

  return redirect('/dashboard?github_installed=true');
}

Acceptance Criteria: - ✅ GitHub App created and configured - ✅ Installation flow works (OAuth callback) - ✅ Webhook endpoint receives events

Estimated Time: 1 day Risk: Low (standard GitHub App setup)

Step 2: Webhook Handler (Day 2-3)

Implementation: 

// src/lib/github/webhook-handler.ts
import { Webhooks } from '@octokit/webhooks';
import { verifyWebhookSignature } from './verify-signature';

export class GitHubWebhookHandler {
  private webhooks: Webhooks;

  constructor() {
    this.webhooks = new Webhooks({
      secret: process.env.GITHUB_APP_WEBHOOK_SECRET!
    });

    // Register handlers
    this.webhooks.on('pull_request.opened', this.handlePROpened.bind(this));
    this.webhooks.on('pull_request.synchronize', this.handlePRSync.bind(this));
  }

  async handlePROpened(event: PullRequestOpenedEvent) {
    const { repository, pull_request } = event.payload;

    // Queue analysis job (don't block webhook response)
    await this.queueAnalysisJob({
      repoOwner: repository.owner.login,
      repoName: repository.name,
      prNumber: pull_request.number,
      headSha: pull_request.head.sha,
      installationId: event.payload.installation.id
    });

    return { status: 'queued' };
  }

  async handlePRSync(event: PullRequestSynchronizeEvent) {
    // Same as opened (new commits pushed to PR)
    return this.handlePROpened(event);
  }

  private async queueAnalysisJob(job: AnalysisJob) {
    // Use Vercel KV for job queue
    await kv.lpush('analysis_queue', JSON.stringify(job));

    // Trigger background worker (separate Vercel function)
    await fetch('/api/github/analyze-worker', { method: 'POST' });
  }
}


// src/app/api/github/webhook/route.ts
import { GitHubWebhookHandler } from '@/lib/github/webhook-handler';

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const signature = req.headers.get('x-hub-signature-256');
  const body = await req.text();

  // Verify webhook signature (security critical)
  if (!verifyWebhookSignature(body, signature)) {
    return Response.json({ error: 'Invalid signature' }, { status: 401 });
  }

  const handler = new GitHubWebhookHandler();
  await handler.processWebhook(body);

  return Response.json({ status: 'ok' });
}

Acceptance Criteria: - ✅ Webhook signature verification works - ✅ PR events trigger analysis jobs - ✅ Jobs queued in Vercel KV - ✅ Response time < 500ms (webhook timeout is 10s)

Testing: 

// __tests__/github/webhook-handler.test.ts
describe('GitHubWebhookHandler', () => {
  it('should queue analysis job on PR opened', async () => {
    const payload = loadFixture('pr-opened.json');
    const handler = new GitHubWebhookHandler();

    await handler.processWebhook(payload);

    const queue = await kv.lrange('analysis_queue', 0, -1);
    expect(queue).toHaveLength(1);
    expect(JSON.parse(queue[0])).toMatchObject({
      repoName: 'test-repo',
      prNumber: 123
    });
  });

  it('should reject invalid webhook signatures', async () => {
    const response = await POST(new Request('http://localhost', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: { 'x-hub-signature-256': 'invalid' },
      body: JSON.stringify({})
    }));

    expect(response.status).toBe(401);
  });
});

Estimated Time: 2 days Risk: Medium (webhook signature verification is critical)

Step 3: PR Analysis Worker (Day 4-5)

Implementation: 

// src/lib/github/pr-analyzer.ts
import { Octokit } from '@octokit/rest';
import { analyzeCode } from '@/lib/analyzers';

export class PRAnalyzer {
  private octokit: Octokit;

  async analyzePR(job: AnalysisJob) {
    // 1. Get PR diff
    const { data: files } = await this.octokit.pulls.listFiles({
      owner: job.repoOwner,
      repo: job.repoName,
      pull_number: job.prNumber
    });

    // 2. Filter to supported languages (JS/TS/PY/Java)
    const supportedFiles = files.filter(file =>
      /\.(js|ts|py|java)$/.test(file.filename)
    );

    // 3. Analyze each file
    const results = await Promise.all(
      supportedFiles.map(file => this.analyzeFile(file))
    );

    // 4. Aggregate results
    const aggregated = this.aggregateResults(results);

    // 5. Post PR comment
    await this.postPRComment(job, aggregated);

    // 6. Update status check
    await this.updateStatusCheck(job, aggregated);

    return aggregated;
  }

  private async analyzeFile(file: PRFile) {
    // Get file content
    const content = await this.getFileContent(file.blob_url);

    // Detect language
    const language = this.detectLanguage(file.filename);

    // Run CodeSlick analysis (existing functionality)
    const result = await analyzeCode({
      code: content,
      language,
      filename: file.filename
    });

    // Map line numbers to PR diff positions
    return {
      filename: file.filename,
      vulnerabilities: result.security.vulnerabilities.map(vuln => ({
        ...vuln,
        diffPosition: this.mapLineToDiffPosition(vuln.line, file.patch)
      }))
    };
  }

  private async postPRComment(job: AnalysisJob, results: AggregatedResults) {
    const comment = this.formatComment(results);

    await this.octokit.issues.createComment({
      owner: job.repoOwner,
      repo: job.repoName,
      issue_number: job.prNumber,
      body: comment
    });

    // Also post inline comments for CRITICAL vulnerabilities
    for (const vuln of results.criticalVulnerabilities) {
      await this.octokit.pulls.createReviewComment({
        owner: job.repoOwner,
        repo: job.repoName,
        pull_number: job.prNumber,
        body: this.formatInlineComment(vuln),
        commit_id: job.headSha,
        path: vuln.filename,
        position: vuln.diffPosition
      });
    }
  }

  private formatComment(results: AggregatedResults): string {
    return `## 🛡️ CodeSlick Security Analysis

### Summary
- **Files Analyzed**: ${results.filesAnalyzed}

`).join('\n')}
` : ''}

---
*Analyzed by [CodeSlick](https://codeslick.vercel.app) • [View Full Report](${results.reportUrl})*
`;
  }

  private async updateStatusCheck(job: AnalysisJob, results: AggregatedResults) {
    // Fail if critical vulnerabilities found
    const state = results.criticalCount > 0 ? 'failure' : 'success';

    await this.octokit.repos.createCommitStatus({
      owner: job.repoOwner,
      repo: job.repoName,
      sha: job.headSha,
      state,
      context: 'CodeSlick Security',
      description: `${results.totalVulnerabilities} vulnerabilities found`,
      target_url: results.reportUrl
    });
  }
}

Acceptance Criteria: - ✅ Analyzes all JS/TS/PY/Java files in PR - ✅ Posts summary comment with results - ✅ Posts inline comments for critical vulnerabilities - ✅ Updates PR status check (pass/fail) - ✅ Analysis completes in < 30 seconds for typical PR (5-10 files)

Estimated Time: 2 days Risk: Medium (GitHub API rate limits, diff mapping complexity)

Step 4: Job Queue System (Day 6)

Why Needed: Webhook responses must be < 10s, but analysis takes 20-30s

Implementation: 

// src/lib/queue/job-queue.ts
import { kv } from '@vercel/kv';

export class JobQueue {
  async enqueue(job: AnalysisJob) {
    await kv.lpush('analysis_queue', JSON.stringify(job));

    // Track job status
    await kv.set(`job:${job.id}:status`, 'queued', { ex: 3600 });
  }

  async dequeue(): Promise<AnalysisJob | null> {
    const job = await kv.rpop('analysis_queue');
    if (!job) return null;

    const parsed = JSON.parse(job);
    await kv.set(`job:${parsed.id}:status`, 'processing', { ex: 3600 });

    return parsed;
  }

  async markComplete(jobId: string, result: any) {
    await kv.set(`job:${jobId}:status`, 'complete', { ex: 3600 });
    await kv.set(`job:${jobId}:result`, JSON.stringify(result), { ex: 86400 });
  }

  async markFailed(jobId: string, error: string) {
    await kv.set(`job:${jobId}:status`, 'failed', { ex: 3600 });
    await kv.set(`job:${jobId}:error`, error, { ex: 3600 });
  }
}


// src/app/api/github/analyze-worker/route.ts
import { JobQueue } from '@/lib/queue/job-queue';
import { PRAnalyzer } from '@/lib/github/pr-analyzer';

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const queue = new JobQueue();
  const analyzer = new PRAnalyzer();

  // Process one job (Vercel will spawn multiple instances if needed)
  const job = await queue.dequeue();
  if (!job) {
    return Response.json({ status: 'no_jobs' });
  }

  try {
    const result = await analyzer.analyzePR(job);
    await queue.markComplete(job.id, result);

    return Response.json({ status: 'complete', jobId: job.id });
  } catch (error) {
    await queue.markFailed(job.id, error.message);

    return Response.json({ status: 'failed', error: error.message }, { status: 500 });
  }
}

// Vercel Cron: Trigger worker every minute
export const config = {
  maxDuration: 60, // 1 minute
  schedule: '* * * * *' // Every minute
};

Acceptance Criteria: - ✅ Webhook response < 500ms (job queued immediately) - ✅ Analysis completes within 1 minute - ✅ Failed jobs tracked and retried - ✅ Queue depth monitored (alert if > 100 jobs)

Estimated Time: 1 day Risk: Low (Vercel KV is reliable)

4.2 Team Dashboard (Week 3)

Goal: Multi-user accounts, team analytics, ROI tracking

Database Schema

// Using Vercel Postgres (or Supabase for simplicity)

// Teams table
interface Team {
  id: string;
  name: string;
  plan: 'free' | 'team' | 'enterprise';
  stripeCustomerId: string;
  createdAt: Date;
  updatedAt: Date;
}

// Team members
interface TeamMember {
  id: string;
  teamId: string;
  userId: string;
  role: 'owner' | 'admin' | 'member';
  invitedAt: Date;
  joinedAt: Date;
}

// GitHub installations (linked to teams)
interface Installation {
  id: string;
  teamId: string;
  installationId: number; // GitHub App installation ID
  accountType: 'organization' | 'user';
  repositories: string[]; // Allowed repos
  installedAt: Date;
}

// Analysis history
interface AnalysisRecord {
  id: string;
  teamId: string;
  prUrl: string;
  repoName: string;
  analyzedAt: Date;
  filesAnalyzed: number;
  vulnerabilitiesFound: number;
  criticalCount: number;
  highCount: number;
  mediumCount: number;
  lowCount: number;
  fixesApplied: number; // For ROI tracking
}

Team Dashboard UI

// src/app/dashboard/team/page.tsx
export default function TeamDashboardPage() {
  const { team, members, analytics } = useTeamData();

  return (
    <div className="container mx-auto px-4 py-8">
      {/* Team Overview */}
      <section className="mb-8">
        <h1 className="text-3xl font-bold mb-4">{team.name}</h1>
        <div className="grid grid-cols-4 gap-4">
          <MetricCard
            label="PRs Analyzed This Month"
            value={analytics.prsAnalyzed}

          <MetricCard
            label="ROI"
            value={`${analytics.roi}x`}
            description="Based on prevented incidents"
          />
        </div>
      </section>

      {/* Recent Analyses */}
      <section className="mb-8">
        <h2 className="text-2xl font-bold mb-4">Recent PR Analyses</h2>
        <AnalysisHistoryTable analyses={analytics.recentAnalyses} />
      </section>

      {/* Team Members */}
      <section className="mb-8">
        <h2 className="text-2xl font-bold mb-4">Team Members ({members.length})</h2>

          Install on More Repos
        </button>
      </section>
    </div>
  );
}

Key Features: 1. Team Analytics: - PRs analyzed (total, this month, this week) - Vulnerabilities found by severity - Top vulnerable repositories - Most common vulnerability types - Time saved vs manual review (estimate based on avg 15 min/PR)

  1. ROI Tracking:
  2. Cost of prevented security incidents (industry avg $4M per breach)
  3. Time saved (manual review vs automated)

  4. Developer productivity improvement

  5. Team Management:

  6. Invite members via email
  7. Role-based permissions (owner/admin/member)
  8. Repository access control

Acceptance Criteria: - ✅ Team owners can invite members - ✅ Dashboard shows last 30 days analytics - ✅ ROI calculation based on industry benchmarks - ✅ Export analytics as PDF report

Estimated Time: 5 days Risk: Medium (multi-tenancy complexity)

4.3 Subscription & Billing (Week 4)

Goal: Launch Team tier (€99/month) with Stripe integration

Pricing Tiers

// src/lib/pricing/plans.ts
export const PLANS = {
  free: {
    name: 'Free',
    price: 0,
    currency: 'EUR',
    limits: {
      prsPerMonth: 20,
      repositories: 1,
      teamMembers: 1,
      apiSecurity: true,
      dependencyScanning: true,
      prComments: true,
      teamDashboard: false,
      prioritySupport: false
    }
  },
  team: {
    name: 'Team',
    price: 99,
    currency: 'EUR',
    stripePriceId: 'price_xxx',
    limits: {
      prsPerMonth: -1, // Unlimited
      repositories: 5,
      teamMembers: 10,
      apiSecurity: true,
      dependencyScanning: true,
      prComments: true,
      teamDashboard: true,
      prioritySupport: true,
      customRules: false
    }
  },
  enterprise: {
    name: 'Enterprise',
    price: 299,
    currency: 'EUR',
    stripePriceId: 'price_yyy',
    limits: {
      prsPerMonth: -1,
      repositories: -1, // Unlimited
      teamMembers: -1,
      apiSecurity: true,
      dependencyScanning: true,
      prComments: true,
      teamDashboard: true,
      prioritySupport: true,
      customRules: true,
      sso: true,
      onPremise: true
    }
  }
};

Stripe Integration

// src/app/api/stripe/checkout/route.ts
import Stripe from 'stripe';

const stripe = new Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY!);

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const { plan, teamId } = await req.json();

  const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
    mode: 'subscription',
    payment_method_types: ['card'],
    line_items: [{
      price: PLANS[plan].stripePriceId,
      quantity: 1
    }],
    success_url: `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_URL}/dashboard/team?checkout=success`,
    cancel_url: `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_URL}/pricing`,
    metadata: {
      teamId,
      plan
    }
  });

  return Response.json({ url: session.url });
}

// src/app/api/stripe/webhook/route.ts
export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const signature = req.headers.get('stripe-signature');
  const body = await req.text();

  const event = stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(
    body,
    signature,
    process.env.STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET!
  );

  switch (event.type) {
    case 'checkout.session.completed':
      await handleCheckoutCompleted(event.data.object);
      break;
    case 'customer.subscription.updated':
      await handleSubscriptionUpdated(event.data.object);
      break;
    case 'customer.subscription.deleted':
      await handleSubscriptionCancelled(event.data.object);
      break;
  }

  return Response.json({ received: true });
}

async function handleCheckoutCompleted(session: Stripe.Checkout.Session) {
  const { teamId, plan } = session.metadata;

  await db.teams.update({
    where: { id: teamId },
    data: {
      plan,
      stripeCustomerId: session.customer as string,
      stripeSubscriptionId: session.subscription as string
    }
  });

  // Send welcome email
  await sendEmail({
    to: session.customer_email,
    subject: 'Welcome to CodeSlick Team!',
    template: 'welcome-team'
  });
}

Usage Tracking: 

// src/lib/usage/tracker.ts
export async function trackPRAnalysis(teamId: string) {
  const team = await db.teams.findUnique({ where: { id: teamId } });

  if (team.plan === 'free') {
    const count = await db.analysisRecords.count({
      where: {
        teamId,
        analyzedAt: { gte: startOfMonth(new Date()) }
      }
    });

    if (count >= PLANS.free.limits.prsPerMonth) {
      throw new Error('Monthly PR limit reached. Upgrade to Team plan for unlimited analyses.');
    }
  }

  // Record analysis
  await db.analysisRecords.create({
    data: { teamId, /* ... */ }
  });
}

Acceptance Criteria: - ✅ Stripe Checkout flow works - ✅ Subscriptions sync with database - ✅ Usage limits enforced (free tier) - ✅ Upgrade/downgrade flow works - ✅ Invoice emails sent automatically

Estimated Time: 3 days Risk: Low (Stripe is well-documented)

Risk Mitigation

Risk 1: GitHub API Rate Limits

Impact: Analysis fails for high-volume teams Mitigation: - Cache file contents (24h TTL) - Use conditional requests (If-None-Match) - Implement exponential backoff - Monitor rate limit headers Probability: Medium (30%)

Risk 2: Slow Analysis Time

Impact: PRs wait > 1 minute for results Mitigation: - Analyze only changed files (not entire repo) - Parallel file analysis - Skip node_modules, build artifacts - Cache dependency scan results Probability: Low (15%)

Risk 3: Low Conversion Rate (Free → Paid)

Impact: No revenue despite usage Mitigation: - Show value early (ROI metrics in free tier) - Usage limit nudges ("You've analyzed 18/20 PRs this month") - Email drip campaign highlighting premium features - Offer discount code for early adopters Probability: High (50%)

Risk 4: GitHub App Security Vulnerability

Impact: Reputational damage, loss of trust Mitigation: - Strict webhook signature verification - Principle of least privilege (minimal GitHub permissions) - Regular security audits - Bug bounty program (after public launch) Probability: Low (10%)
