ShipOrNah Launches Free Security Scanner for AI-Built Apps

KEY FACTS

ShipOrNah released a free security scanning service on Hacker News.
Users can start a scan by pasting a GitHub repository URL.
The tool targets apps built with AI coding tools such as Lovable, Bolt, and Cursor.
Scans cover exposed API keys, missing Supabase RLS, and unprotected routes.

PHYSIX OBSERVATION

AI coding tools have drastically lowered the barrier to building a site, but security configuration is often overlooked, making leaked keys and wide-open databases the new normal. ShipOrNah's free scan hits a real pain point, and it also shows that the security debt of AI-generated apps has grown large enough to need dedicated tooling to backstop it. Developers should fold security checks into their launch process.
