As devs, we all know the struggle with code security scanners:
Switching between IDE and clunky dashboards to check vulnerabilities
Wasting hours sifting through false positives
Getting vulnerability alerts with zero guidance on how to actually fix them
I stumbled on an IDE extension (ZAST Express for VS Code/Cursor) last week that s amazing for my workflow. The Proof of Concept (PoC) feature is what sold me instead of just flagging issues, it gives runnable snippets to validate the problem, plus clear fixes right in my editor. No context switching, no guesswork, and it s free to start.
