Platform-aware security audit for apps built with Windsurf. What it covers, what it typically finds, and how to run one in 30 seconds.
A Windsurf security audit covers four dimensions — the same four we check on every app, regardless of how it was built. For Windsurf apps specifically, Security and Reliability are where the highest-severity findings concentrate.
Every AI code builder has characteristic output patterns — consistent ways it structures routes, handles environment variables, configures middleware, and manages errors. Our scanner is calibrated to Windsurf's patterns, which means faster detection and fewer false positives.
These are not flaws in Windsurf — they are standard infrastructure hardening steps that fall outside the scope of any code generator. They are straightforward to fix once identified.
Based on scans run through launchreadycode.com across AI-built apps as of June 2026:
Paste your live URL at launchreadycode.com. No code access required. No signup. You get a Launch Readiness Score /100 across all four dimensions plus the top findings. Takes about 30 seconds.
The Launch Readiness Audit Report covers every finding with CVSS v3 severity, exact file references where applicable, and specific recommended fixes. Delivered in under 2 minutes. OWASP Top 10 · CWE Top 25 · CVSS v3 methodology.
Three things to check before your Windsurf app goes live:
# 1. Search your build output for exposed secrets # Look for these patterns in your browser bundle: grep -r "OPENAI_API_KEY\|sk-\|stripe_secret\|service_role" ./dist # 2. Test rate limiting manually # Hit your /api/login endpoint 20 times in 10 seconds # If it accepts all 20 — you have no rate limiting # 3. Trigger a 500 error # Call an endpoint with bad input # If the response includes a stack trace — fix your error middleware
This list addresses the six most common critical and high-severity findings. An LRC scan checks all of these plus 40+ additional vectors across reliability, performance, and monitoring.

Scan my Windsurf app — freeNo. Windsurf is a well-engineered development tool that produces high-quality code. The security gaps come from configuration defaults and the inherent scope of a code generator — rate limiting, header middleware, secret handling, and monitoring require implementation decisions specific to your deployment environment. These are standard hardening steps.
The six most common issues are all fixable in under 2 hours total: rate limiting middleware (20–30 min), environment variable audit and rotation (20 min), error middleware (15 min), HTTP headers (10 min), CSRF middleware (10 min), error tracking setup (10 min). The scan tells you exactly what to fix. Our Code Care DFY Technical Setup ($1,999 setup fee + $2,999/mo) implements all of it for you.
No. The LRC scanner is URL-based — it tests what is publicly exposed from your live app, which is where real attackers start. No GitHub access, no source code, no deployment credentials required.
The four dimensions and methodology are the same. The platform-specific checks differ — each AI builder produces characteristic patterns in how it structures routes, handles environment variables, and configures middleware. See also: Lovable security audit · Claude Code security audit.
