Question 1

What types of issues can Prodlint detect?

Accepted Answer

Prodlint detects a range of critical problems, including hardcoded API keys, SQL injection vulnerabilities, unsafe HTML, missing authentication checks, hallucinated imports, and reliability issues like inadequate error handling. It scores projects across Security, Reliability, Performance, and AI Quality.

Question 2

How does Prodlint integrate into a CI/CD pipeline?

Accepted Answer

Prodlint offers a dedicated GitHub Action for seamless integration into CI/CD workflows. It can post score summaries as PR comments and fail builds if the project's score falls below a defined threshold, ensuring continuous code quality.

Question 3

What is Prodlint and what does it do?

Accepted Answer

Prodlint is a deterministic, zero-config CLI tool designed to scan AI-generated and 'vibe-coded' projects for critical production readiness issues. It identifies security flaws, reliability bugs, performance bottlenecks, and AI quality gaps before your code reaches production.

Question 4

What makes Prodlint different from other linters like ESLint or TypeScript?

Accepted Answer

Unlike linters that focus on syntax or type-checking, Prodlint specifically targets 'production readiness gaps' – issues that are syntactically valid but pose significant security, reliability, or performance risks in live environments, particularly common in code generated by AI tools.

Question 5

Can Prodlint be used with AI coding tools?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Prodlint ships with an MCP (Meta-programming Chat Protocol) server (`prodlint-mcp`) that allows it to integrate directly with AI coding tools like Cursor, Claude Code, and Windsurf, enabling real-time scanning and feedback within your AI development environment.
