Static analysis assisted refers to the practice of using automated static analysis tools to aid developers in finding and fixing bugs and vulnerabilities in software code. Static analysis involves examining source code without executing it, looking for patterns that indicate potential problems. These tools can identify a wide range of issues, including syntax errors, logical flaws, security vulnerabilities, and style guide violations.

By integrating static analysis into the development workflow, teams can catch errors earlier in the development cycle, which is generally less costly and time-consuming than fixing them after the code has been deployed. Static analysis tools can provide immediate feedback to developers as they write code, either directly within their integrated development environment (IDE) or through continuous integration pipelines. This proactive approach helps to improve code quality, enhance security, and reduce the overall maintenance burden of software projects. The "assisted" aspect highlights that these tools are not meant to replace human review but rather to augment it, allowing developers to focus their attention on more complex or nuanced issues.
