DeepSweep -- Security for AI-Generated Code

64 security patterns. Sub-second validation. Zero setup.

Catch what your AI assistant gets wrong -- hardcoded secrets, prompt injection, rules file backdoors, supply chain risks -- before they ship.

Works with Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Windsurf, and any AI coding tool.


How It Works

  1. Install -- search "DeepSweep" in Extensions, click Install
  2. Code -- DeepSweep validates automatically as you type and save
  3. Ship -- fix findings with one-click copy prompts, paste back to your AI assistant

Everything runs locally in your editor. No code leaves your machine for pattern matching.


What It Detects

Category Examples Severity
Rules File Backdoors Invisible Unicode, bidirectional text overrides, hidden content in .cursorrules Critical
Credential Exposure Hardcoded API keys, AWS secrets, Stripe keys, private keys Critical
Prompt Injection Instruction override, role reassignment in AI config files Critical
Data Exfiltration Code sent to external URLs via rules files Critical
MCP Security Unrestricted tool access, remote server connections High
Supply Chain Hallucinated packages, typosquatted dependencies High
Injection Flaws SQL injection, XSS, command injection, path traversal High
Misconfigurations Insecure crypto, disabled TLS verification, debug mode in production Medium

64 patterns total -- 24 AI-specific (with CVE references) + 40 traditional security patterns.


Key Features

  • Live Validation -- validates as you type (800ms debounce)
  • Validation Proof -- see exactly what was checked: patterns, files, categories, duration
  • 9 UI Surfaces -- status bar, Problems panel, CodeLens, Quick Fix, tree view, webview, decorations, notifications, output channel
  • AI Assistant Detection -- identifies which tool generated the code (Cursor, Copilot, Claude, Windsurf)
  • Finding Suppression -- suppress findings with reason categories, expiration dates, and audit trails
  • Fix All Auto-Correct -- one-click static fixes across your workspace
  • Security Badge -- copy a shields.io-style badge for your README
  • Config File Monitoring -- auto-validates when .cursorrules, .env, or mcp.json change

DeepSweep runs pattern matching locally in your editor. No source code is sent to external servers for validation. Anonymous usage telemetry helps improve detection accuracy and can be disabled in settings.
