In short, Yes, you can use clang-tidy as frontend for analyser.

clang-tidy is not mentioned because clang-tidy depend on analyser, not analyser on clang-tidy.

• "clang-check -analyze"

• "scan-build",

• "clang++ --analyze -Xanalyzer"

• "clang-tidy -checks=clang-analyzer-*"

Are basically different front-ends used to access same checks.
