@ -11,7 +11,13 @@ Kingfisher is a blazingly fast secret‑scanning and validation tool built in Ru
Kingfisher originated as a fork of [Nosey Parker](https://github.com/praetorian-inc/noseyparker) by Praetorian Security, Inc, and is built atop their incredible work and the work contributed by the Nosey Parker community.
Kingfisher extends Nosey Parker with live secret validation via cloud-provider APIs, augments regex detection with tree-sitter for code parsing, adds GitLab support, and builds a Windows x64 binary.
Kingfisher extends Nosey Parker by:
1. Validating secrets in real time via cloud-provider APIs
2. Enhancing regex-based detection with source-code parsing for improved accuracy
3. Adding GitLab repository scanning support
4. Providing Jira scanning capabilities
5. Introducing a baseline feature that suppresses known secrets and reports only newly introduced ones
5. Offering native Windows environment support
