Dokima vs general-purpose AI audit agents

# A capable model helps. A repeatable review process makes it useful next month too.

General-purpose agents are flexible and can explore a codebase quickly. Dokima adds a durable security workflow around the runner: persistent context, bounded roles, accepted state, follow-up planning and finding governance.

Where it works well

## General-purpose AI audit agents has a useful job to do.

* Starting a flexible investigation with minimal setup.
* Adapting quickly to an unusual question or repository.
* Combining analysis with other agent capabilities.
* Producing a useful one-off exploration or explanation.

Where Dokima differs

## Context and review, not just another pass.

* 01Dokima owns the review lifecycle instead of relying on one long audit prompt.
* 02Runner output must match expected structured state before work is accepted.
* 03Coverage, finding state, annotations and run history persist in the workspace.
* 04Different supported runners can execute the same bounded Dokima roles.

Who Dokima suits

## Teams that want an operational security-review system around AI analysis, rather than rebuilding the audit prompt and process for each run.

Use them together

## Use a general agent for unusual investigations. Use Dokima for the repeatable review lifecycle and the long-lived record your team works from.
