What it does
Checkmarx Developer Assist is an agentic application security companion that works inside your IDE to prevent and remediate vulnerabilities in real time. Built for AI-driven development, it detects issues in AI-generated code, explains risk, and delivers safe, non-breaking fixes directly in Cursor, Windsurf, AWS Kiro, VS Code — without breaking developer flow.
Detect, remediate, and verify security issues as code is created. Checkmarx Developer Assist brings self-healing security into AI coding workflows.
Bring self-healing security into AI-native development. Detect, fix, and verify issues as code is created, with reviewable changes that keep risk out of the repo and backlog. Developer Assist connects detection, remediation, and verification inside developer workflows so security issues can be fixed before they become downstream rework. Analyze human- and AI-generated changes as they are created. Developer Assist identifies risk across application code, dependencies, malicious packages, IaC, secrets, and containers. Provide security-specific remediation grounded in the finding and surrounding code. Depending on the workflow, Developer Assist can guide the change, propose a reviewable fix,…from dev.checkmarx.com

VibeShift MCP2025 · github.com · ▲141Hi HN, We are the devs behind VibeShift. We have been building this MCP server to put AI coding assistants in an automatic feedback loop. They code, test, debug, fix everything until we have a fully working, secure code. It tests like a real user, copies network/console and logical errors to give them back to cursor. (1 min demo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bN_RgQGa8B0) We felt this was the natural next step for AI coding assistants. And with new asynchronous assistants like codex, having a plug & play tester makes sure you don't have to spend time debugging and…

Hi HN! We just launched Codacy Guardrails, an IDE extension with a CLI for code analysis and MCP server that enforces security & quality rules on AI-generated code in real-time. It hooks into AI coding assistants (like VS Code Agent Mode, Cursor, Windsurf), silently scanning and fixing AI-suggested code that has vulnerabilities or violates your coding standards, while the code it’s being generated. We built this because coding agents can be a double-edged sword. They do boost productivity, but can easily introduce insecure or non-compliant code. One recent research team at NYU found that 40%…

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
