Browser Direct Database Check — Does Your App Talk to the DB from the Browser?
DevMeth checks the 48 known AI-code failure patterns — not a penetration test or a security guarantee.
What the issue is
Connecting to your database (e.g. a Prisma client) directly from browser code hands database access and credentials to every visitor, since client code is fully readable.
Why AI tools generate it
AI tools wire the database client directly into a component to make data render quickly, glossing over that client components run in the visitor's browser.
How DevMeth detects it
A code scan looks for database client usage inside client components or browser-entry files and flags it, since that code ships to every visitor.

WHAT WE FOUND
app/components/Feed.tsx — new PrismaClient() in a client component
The fix, in three steps
Move all database access into server-side route handlers or server functions and keep the client talking to your API. Three steps.
