Bolt launch security

Security checklist for Bolt apps before launch

Export or push the Bolt project to GitHub, then run the local check in the resulting repository. The local check covers GitHub Actions and update-automation hygiene. App logic like auth, secrets, payments, webhooks, and runtime behavior still needs manual review before serious traffic.

Local check

Check a repo from your terminal

No network by default
npx taskbounty-check@latest .

Runs locally and checks GitHub Actions + CI hygiene. It writes a local report and does not upload source code or workflow contents.

Want it inside your workflow? Copy the Cursor, Claude, Codex, and GitHub Actions snippets.

It is not a full app security audit: secrets, auth, payments, webhooks, and runtime behavior still need a manual review. For help turning findings into fixes, request a confidential review.

Common launch risks in Bolt apps

Fast prototypes that skip dependency update automation.
Over-broad GitHub Actions permissions added during deploy setup.
Generated API endpoints that need abuse limits before public traffic.

Recommended workflow

  1. Export or sync the Bolt app to GitHub.
  2. Run `npx taskbounty-check@latest .` before launch.
  3. Separately review secrets, auth, payments, webhooks, and production endpoints.

Bolt launch review prompt

I built this app with Bolt. Before launch, review it using this workflow:

1. Export or sync the Bolt app to GitHub.
2. Run `npx taskbounty-check@latest .` before launch.
3. Separately review secrets, auth, payments, webhooks, and production endpoints.

Separate local CI/workflow hygiene findings from risks that need human review. Do not upload source code or workflow contents. Ask before changing files.

Next step

Start with the local CLI. If the app handles users, money, private data, webhooks, or AI actions, use the broader checklist and request a confidential review for the parts automation cannot safely verify.
