The Security view shows security findings for a single project. It runs Vibely’s built-in scanners over your code, dependencies, and linked Supabase database, groups what they find by severity, and turns each finding into a fix you can send from the chat.
Scan, review, fix from chat
To open it, select Manage in the editor header, then select Security. The publish dialog also shows your latest scan result and links to the Security view when it finds critical issues.
The Security view covers one project. To monitor findings across every project in your workspace, use the Security center. For guidance on writing secure code in the first place, see Security best practices.

Why use the Security view

  • Catch issues before you publish. Misconfigured database access, exposed secrets, and vulnerable packages are easier to fix before real users arrive.
  • Focus on what matters. Findings are grouped by severity, so you can fix errors first and review the rest later.
  • Fix from the chat. Each finding carries its own fix prompt, so you don’t have to explain the problem to the agent yourself.
  • Know when results are stale. The scan status tells you when your project has changed since the last scan.

Understanding scan status

The status next to Security scan summarizes the whole project: Findings describe a snapshot of your code. When you edit the files a finding points at, it doesn’t update on its own: the status changes to Outdated and you run a new scan. The view also shows a Security score (Excellent, Good, Fair, or At risk) based on your open findings.

Run Basic and Deep scans

Use the buttons at the top of the view. Both scans are free. The row-level security and database scanners need a linked Supabase project. Without one, they’re skipped with an info note and the other scanners still run. Run a scan:
  • before publishing
  • after significant code or database changes
  • after adding or updating packages
  • periodically for apps in production

Included security findings

Mobile projects get the mobile rules automatically.

Review and fix findings

All findings appear under Detected issues, grouped by severity. Filter by severity at the top of the list. Expand a finding to see which scanner produced it, the file and line, an explanation, and a Suggested fix. If the latest scan found nothing, the view says so, but a clean scan doesn’t guarantee your app has no security risk. You can address findings in several ways:
  • Fix one finding. Select Fix. Vibely writes a prompt naming the finding, the file and line, and the suggested fix, and puts it in the chat. Review it, send it, and check the changes like any other edit.
  • Fix everything open. Select Try to fix all to put one prompt covering every open finding in the chat.
  • Update vulnerable packages. Select Auto-fix deps to upgrade vulnerable packages to their fixed versions. It only makes non-major upgrades, because a major version can change behavior. Majors are left for you to decide.
  • Ignore a finding. If a finding doesn’t apply, select Ignore this finding and give a reason. The reason is logged with your name, and you can Unignore it at any time.
Always review the changes and test your app after a fix.

Review project dependencies

The Project dependencies card lists packages with known vulnerabilities from the latest deep scan. Select Export JSON to download the list for an audit or compliance review.

Leaked password protection

When a Supabase project is linked, the view shows a Leaked password protection switch. Turn it on to block sign-ups and password changes that use passwords found in known data breaches (Have I Been Pwned).

Improve scan accuracy with security memory

Select Edit security memory to add project-specific context. The scanners read it on every run. Use it to explain things that look wrong but are correct in your app, for example:
Use security memory to give context about your app, not to dismiss real issues.

Publishing and security

Every publish starts a Basic scan in the background. It doesn’t block that publish: the deploy proceeds and the findings land in the Security view. Workspace owners and admins can go further with settings in Settings → Privacy & security. They apply to every project in the workspace: A blocked publish tells you which setting blocked it. The same rules apply to web publishing and mobile store submissions. See Privacy & security.

Before a mobile build

A web deploy can be rolled back in a minute. A native binary in store review can’t. Once submitted, you wait out the review, then submit a new build and wait again. So on mobile, scan first:
1

Run a Deep scan before the build

From the Security view, or ask for a security scan in the chat.
2

Clear every Error finding

Judge warnings case by case. Fix errors.
3

Then start the build

Scheduled scans

On the Business plan, workspace admins can run deep scans on a schedule (weekly or monthly) for all projects or published projects only. Set this up in the Security center.

Best practices

  • Keep findings current. Rescan when the status says Outdated, especially after adding features, changing database access, or updating packages.
  • Fix errors first. Error findings are usually exploitable.
  • Combine scans with a review. Now and then, ask the agent to review your app’s security in the chat. A narrative review can catch issues the scanners miss.
  • Be deliberate when ignoring. Ignore a finding only when it clearly doesn’t apply, and revisit ignored findings as your app changes.
  • Keep monitoring after publishing. New features and new vulnerabilities in packages both create new findings.
Automated scans catch common issues, but they can’t guarantee complete security. For apps that handle sensitive data or payments, consider a professional security review.

FAQ

Select Manage in the editor header, then Security.
Your project changed since a scanner last ran, so its findings may no longer match your code. Run a Basic or Deep scan to refresh them.
A Deep scan runs Vibely’s scanners and updates the findings in the Security view. Asking the agent to review your app’s security in the chat gives you a written review and recommendations, and uses credits like any other chat turn. They’re complementary.
Anyone with edit access to the project. Viewers can see the Security view but can’t run scans or change findings.
Unless your workspace has Block publishing with critical issues turned on, the publish goes ahead. The publish dialog shows how many critical issues were found so you can review them first.
