Devin Security Context

Devin is a powerful autonomous AI developer, but AI-generated code may include vulnerabilities from training data or skip security hardening steps. Always review and test before production.

Security Checklist

Review all AI-generated code

Critical

Manually audit code for security issues that AI may have introduced.

Update deprecated patterns

Critical

Replace any outdated security patterns from AI training data.

Add missing security hardening

Critical

Implement security features that AI may have skipped for functionality.

Validate third-party integrations

Critical

Audit all external service integrations for security best practices.

Fix error handling

Ensure errors fail securely without exposing sensitive information.

Add security tests

Implement security-focused test cases for critical paths.

Review authentication flows

Verify authentication is properly implemented on all protected routes.
