We would love to provide Java support! I personally did poke at a few tools before launch but didn't do anything final. Which Java tools would you like to see on Code Climate? Findbugs? Any others?
Interesting move and really good news! I'm glad new engines are already being added, particularly Rubocop and Bundler Audit. In the end, I'm confident this will have an important and positive impact on more developers, their skills and their codebases.
Will you open source the engines you are currently using to analyse Ruby code? You know, Brakeman, Flog and Flay?
Disclaimer: I wrote a gem similar (but which can't be compared) to Code Climate and I've always wondered how you guys highlight sections of duplicate code. My bet is that you rewrote Flay :P
Thanks! Really glad to hear that you're excited about it.
The engines are meant to replace our existing analysis, and all of the engines we are running on codeclimate.com are now Open Source. That being said, we are indeed working on Brakeman and Flog engines, which should be available soon.
As to the secret sauce behind our duplication analysis - you'll be able to see that soon! Stay tuned!
This is really fantastic, and honestly not something I expected to see. I'm a huge fan of the business model where the tool is open source, and the paid service is simply a hosted version for those that don't want to maintain the infrastructure themselves.

Good job :)
