Sonar Updates

Hi!

I am thrilled to announce a significant upgrade to your development workflow. As part of our commitment to helping you remediate your issues faster, SonarQube now officially supports GPT-5.1 as the underlying engine for our AI CodeFix feature on both Cloud and Server.

:light_bulb: Why GPT-5.1?

We have been testing various models extensively, and GPT-5.1 has shown a substantial leap in performance for static analysis remediation. Here is what you can expect:

  • Deeper Contextual Awareness: GPT-5.1 handles larger context windows more effectively, meaning the suggested fix takes into account not just the line of code, but the surrounding logic and file structure.

:hammer_and_wrench: How to Enable It

On SonarQube Server:

  1. Navigate to Administration > Configuration > AI CodeFix.
  2. Under the Provider Selection dropdown, you will now see OpenAI GPT-5.1.
  3. Click Save Settings.

Note: AI CodeFix is currently available for Enterprise Edition and Data Center Edition users.

On SonarQube Cloud:

The model switch is automatic: users using AI CodeFix with the OpenAI provider have already been upgraded.

Note: AI CodeFix is currently available for Team and Enterprise plan users.

:locked: Privacy & Security

We understand that sending code to an LLM requires trust. As with our previous AI integrations:

  • Your code is sent strictly for the purpose of generating a fix.
  • Zero Retention: We enforce policies ensuring your code is not used to train the public GPT models and also not stored on OpenAI server.
  • You retain full control over which projects have AI CodeFix enabled.

Many thanks for your continued support.

Happy Coding!

Alexander
