Deterministic linting, API hallucinations, and what happens when you stop trusting AI to test its own code.
The speed of vibe coding was never the risk — treating verification as optional is. How to keep the loop fast with a deterministic CI gate between 'agent wrote it' and 'it merged'.
First-party data from api-doctor's first five weeks of external scans: two-thirds of scans surface a real integration issue — and every finding is a measurement API providers have never had: which parts of their docs are failing AI agents.
Y Combinator's RFS says API providers shouldn't announce changes — they should apply them, agent-opened PR and all. api-doctor already runs that loop: rules tracked against the latest SDKs, and the fix opened the moment one fires.
62% of AI-generated code contains vulnerabilities, AI-linked CVEs grew 6x in three months, and one in five samples imports a package that doesn't exist. Here's what the numbers mean and what to do.
Claude Code will read your .env and can paste real key values into generated code. Here's the guardrail setup: gitignore, CLAUDE.md rules, permission denies, and a pre-commit scan.
AI coding agents hardcode API keys because they can't see your .env setup. Here's how keys leak into client bundles and git, and how to catch it before you ship.
Code compiles. Tests pass. Code review approves. Then it fails in prod. Here's the pattern every api-doctor user finds.
Claude writes broken code. Claude writes broken tests. You need deterministic verification to break the loop.
Your Claude Code/Cursor skips webhook verification. Attackers can spoof requests. api-doctor catches this before deploy.
Claude Code accepts any webhook structure. Provider changes it. Code crashes silently. api-doctor validates schemas.
See exactly what api-doctor checks. All rules open source on GitHub. No black boxes.
Your Stripe/Resend call retries without idempotency keys. Customer charged twice. Here's why api-doctor catches it.
Make Claude Code auto-verify and auto-fix API bugs. One-minute setup. Zero manual checking.
Claude Code and Cursor hardcode API keys and secrets by default. Here's why AI coding agents do it, and how api-doctor catches it before you commit.
Claude Code inverts auth logic by default. Users locked out. Tests pass. api-doctor catches it before deploy.
Testing AI code with AI is like asking a hallucination to detect hallucinations. Here's the deterministic alternative that actually works.
237 developers. 237 projects. Here are the patterns of bugs your AI generates (and how to catch them).
Your reviewer doesn't know Stripe docs by heart. They miss idempotency keys, webhook verification. api-doctor doesn't.
