The team achieved real-time vulnerability checks by using Convex's real-time mutations paired with edge streaming, allowing initial results to appear in under 20 seconds. The project has attracted 175 developer visits on its fourth day of public development.", "body_md": "When building security or code auditing tools, **speed is everything**. Developers won't wait 45 seconds for a bloated PDF report—they want instant feedback on potential bugs, security leaks, or bad practices.\n\nOver the last week, we've been building **BugZ AI**, a lightweight scanner designed to analyze code repos and security links in under **5 seconds**.\n\nHere is a breakdown of our stack and the architecture choices behind keeping real-time scans ultra-fast.\n\n💡\n\nBuild in Public Update:We hit175 total developer visitstoday on Day 4 of building out in the open!\n\nThe biggest challenge was stream handling. Instead of waiting for the entire LLM response to complete before rendering analysis to the UI, we used Convex's real-time mutations paired with edge streaming.\n\nThis lets the user paste a link or snippet and see initial vulnerability checks pop up in real-time within **< 20 seconds**.\n\nIf you want to run a quick audit on your project or test a link, check out the live demo here: **[INSERT YOUR BUGZ AI LINK HERE]**\n\nI'd love to hear your feedback on the scanning speed and response accuracy. What features would make this a daily part of your dev workflow?", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/how-we-built-an-instant-ai-security-code-auditor-in-next-js-convex", "canonical_source": "https://dev.to/kientndev/how-we-built-an-instant-ai-security-code-auditor-in-nextjs-convex-i9i", "published_at": "2026-08-14 03:07:44+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-14 03:45:38.092407+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["developer-tools", "ai-products", "artificial-intelligence"], "entities": ["BugZ AI", "Next.js", "Convex"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/how-we-built-an-instant-ai-security-code-auditor-in-next-js-convex", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/how-we-built-an-instant-ai-security-code-auditor-in-next-js-convex.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/how-we-built-an-instant-ai-security-code-auditor-in-next-js-convex.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/how-we-built-an-instant-ai-security-code-auditor-in-next-js-convex.jsonld"}}
