Meziantou.Analyzer is a C# Roslyn analyzer distributed as a NuGet package that performs static analysis to detect bugs, security issues, and violations of best practices, with many rules offering automated code fixes. It ships a large set of configurable rules (MA0001+) covering usage, style, performance, design, and security categories.

Use cases

  • enforce C# best practices across a codebase
  • detect bugs and security issues like missing regex timeouts at compile time
  • add automated code fixes for common C# mistakes
  • improve code quality in CI builds via Roslyn analyzers
  • help AI-assisted coding write more reliable C#
  • compare and complement other .NET analyzers without duplicate rules

When to choose

  • you maintain a C#/.NET codebase and want broad, actively maintained analyzer rules
  • you want code fixes integrated into the IDE and build
  • you need security-focused checks such as regex evaluation timeouts

When to avoid

  • your project is not on .NET/Roslyn
  • you only need formatting or linting outside the compiler pipeline
