SynOI vs Socket / Snyk · supply chain

Publisher-side HITL is a different layer.

Socket and Snyk scan packages at the consumer. SynOI Supply Chain Guard gates them at the publisher. Defeating Mini-Shai-Hulud-class worms at publish time is a different problem from catching them post-publish.

Coming soon

The full side-by-side ships with the Supply Chain Guard public beta in Q1 2027. Today, the short version: Socket and Snyk are excellent consumer-side scanners and we recommend running them. SCG operates one step earlier, at the publish gate, so a stolen npm token cannot reach any scanner because the malicious release never enters the registry.
