Developer Assist integrates directly into AI coding tools like Cursor, Windsurf, and Kiro via hooks and MCP, running a continuous find-and-fix loop pre-commit. Triage and Remediation agents handle existing backlogs by prioritizing exploitable risks and generating merge-ready pull requests. According to Checkmarx-commissioned research, frontier AI models produce secure and functional code only 24–36% of the time, highlighting the gap these agents aim to close. The capabilities are generally available now through Checkmarx One. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
