Fix Plan

Modern codebases contain thousands of potential issues. Fixing everything at once is unrealistic. AI Fix Plan helps teams focus their effort where it delivers the highest value by intelligently prioritizing issues based on risk, usage, and long-term impact.

Instead of overwhelming developers with raw rule violations, CppDepend highlights the most critical and high-priority problems first, while keeping long-term quality improvements visible and measurable.

Smart Issue Prioritization

AI Fix Plan classifies issues into clear, actionable categories such as:

Critical Priority Fix – Issues that pose immediate risks and must be addressed first

High Priority Fix – Problems with significant impact on maintainability or reliability

Design Fix – Architectural and design concerns affecting code structure

Readability Fix – Improvements that make the code easier to understand and maintain

Long-Term Quality – Technical debt items to plan and track over time

This structured view allows teams to make informed decisions, align fixes with business priorities, and avoid wasting time on low-impact changes.

Actionable Guidance, Not Just Warnings

AI Fix Plan does more than identify problems. For each category, CppDepend provides practical guidance and dedicated tools to help developers understand and resolve issues efficiently.

✓Direct access to the most impacted methods and types
✓Refactoring suggestions for overly complex code
✓AI-powered prompts to accelerate issue resolution
✓Code insights to understand root causes and side effects

Developers spend less time analyzing reports and more time fixing real problems.

The Right Tool for Every Fix

For every prioritized issue, Fix Plan doesn't just tell you what to fix — it connects you directly to the tool that helps you do it. Open the tools menu on any issue and jump straight into action:

✓Quality Gates — customize a quality gate to track this issue category over time
✓Skills — explore the related code safety or design weaknesses
✓Code Quest — adapt the underlying query for deeper, custom analysis
✓Code Search — filter and locate every occurrence of the issue in your code
✓Code Diff — explore new issues introduced since the baseline

Fix Plan becomes the central hub of your remediation workflow: prioritize, then fix with the right tool in one click.

Measure and Control Technical Debt

Quality Insights integrates technical debt metrics directly into the analysis, helping teams understand the cost of poor quality and track progress over time.

With clear ratings, trends, and cost-to-reach targets, teams can:

✓Monitor quality evolution across builds
✓Prevent quality regressions
✓Plan refactoring efforts realistically
✓Align technical decisions with long-term goals

Designed for Development Teams

AI Fix Plan is designed to fit naturally into developers' workflows. It scales from small projects to large enterprise codebases and helps teams continuously improve quality without slowing down delivery.

By combining intelligent prioritization, actionable guidance, and powerful analysis tools, AI Fix Plan turns static analysis into a practical decision-making assistant.
