## LGTM.com automated code analysis

**What you get.** Formerly offered free continuous security/code analysis (CodeQL-based) for open source projects. LGTM.com was shut down in December 2022 after GitHub acquired Semmle; its functionality moved into GitHub code scanning with CodeQL, which remains free for public repositories on GitHub.

**Who qualifies.** Applies to the project.

**How to apply.** No longer possible; use GitHub code scanning (CodeQL) on public GitHub repositories instead.
