I never saw anyone using it (in the security and program analysis field), to be honest, probably used mostly in DoE. It's an interesting concept but looks bare bones and unfinished for any meaningful use. I think it targets some legacy languages rather than mainstream tools, for example, Jovial. Last time (5 years ago or so admittedly though) I tried it on some C codebase, it failed to handle it.
Kudos to LLNL for open sourcing it and putting on GitHub though.
