Ten practical checks are outlined for developers launching AI-generated software: having the AI explain the full codebase, hunting for exposed secrets in code and git history, verifying server-side validation of browser inputs, testing authorization beyond authentication, feeding bad input intentionally, auditing dependencies for hallucinated or malicious packages, stress-testing payment flows including failure cases, simulating external service outages, preparing a concrete rollback plan, and documenting unresolved risks. The post concludes with a promotion for a free 75-page PDF toolkit containing 190 structured checks, AI prompts, and launch readiness worksheets. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
