Show HN: Hackmenot – Security scanner for AI-generated code

https://github.com/b0rd3aux/hackmenot
1•b0rd3aux•6h ago
Hey HN! I built hackmenot because I kept seeing the same security vulnerabilities in AI-generated code.

  The problem: AI assistants optimize for "code that works," not "code that's secure." They routinely generate SQL injection via        
  f-strings, hardcode API keys, use os.system() with user input, and pick weak crypto like MD5.                                         
                                                                                                                                        
  What hackmenot does:                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                        
  - 100+ rules purpose-built for AI code patterns                                                                                       
  - Python, JavaScript, Go, Terraform                                                                                                   
  - Auto-fix mode (hackmenot scan . --fix)                                                                                              
  - Detects hallucinated packages (dependencies AI made up that don't exist)                                                            
  - Sub-second scans with caching                                                                                                       
  - GitHub Action with SARIF support                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                        
  Install: pip install hackmenot                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                        
  It's Apache 2.0, no API keys needed, works offline.                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                        
  Would love feedback on the rules coverage and any patterns I'm missing. Happy to answer questions!
