The 10-Minute Security Check
Before a vibe-coded app leaves your laptop, check auth, database policies, secrets, file uploads, admin routes, rate limits, and public pages.
- 1Name the job before naming the tool.
- 2Write the smallest useful scope the agent can finish.
- 3Run the result as a user, not as a fan of the tool.
- 4Inspect the diff, data access, and failure path before sharing.
Use this as the working prompt or checklist for the lesson.
Audit this app for: exposed .env values, public Supabase tables, missing auth guards, public storage buckets, unsafe admin routes, unvalidated forms, no rate limits, and destructive actions without confirmation.- What should the user be able to do when this is finished?
- What data should the app or agent never expose?
- What test proves the change works?
- What rollback path exists if the output is wrong?
