When you run MRVA against a list of repositories, your query is run against each repository that has a {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} database available to analyze. {% data variables.product.company_short %} creates and stores the latest {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} database for the default branch of thousands of public repositories, including every repository that runs {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} using {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}.
You need to enable {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} using {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}, using either default setup or advanced setup, before adding your repository to a list for analysis. For information about enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} using {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}, see "[AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/automatically-scanning-your-code-for-vulnerabilities-and-errors/configuring-code-scanning-for-a-repository#configuring-code-scanning-automatically)."

## Configuring access to the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql_cli %}
If you already have the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql_cli %} installed and added to your `PATH`, the extension will use that version. This might be the case if you create your own {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} databases instead of downloading them from {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}. For more information, see "[AUTOTITLE](/code-security/codeql-cli/getting-started-with-the-codeql-cli/preparing-your-code-for-codeql-analysis)."

Otherwise, the extension automatically manages access to the executable of the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql_cli %} for you. This ensures that the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql_cli %} is compatible with the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} extension. You can also check for updates with the **{% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}: Check for CLI Updates** command from the {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode_command_palette_shortname %}.
