Security issues rarely announce themselves. Hardcoded API keys, injection vulnerabilities and outdated dependencies sit quietly in your codebase until someone finds them — ideally you, before anyone else does.

With v0.9.17, DevoxxGenie integrates three best-in-class open-source security scanners directly as LLM agent tools. Your AI assistant can now scan your project on demand, interpret the results in context, explain each finding, suggest remediations, and automatically create prioritised backlog tasks — all from a single prompt.
