How to Secure Your Antigravity App
Last updated: January 12, 2026
Antigravity enables rapid app development with AI assistance, but the generated code often prioritizes functionality over security. This guide covers securing your Antigravity application before launch.
Step-by-Step Security Guide
1. Audit Generated Code for Secrets
Search your codebase for hardcoded API keys. Antigravity may generate code with keys directly in source files.
grep -r 'sk-' . # Find OpenAI keys
grep -r 'sk_live' . # Find Stripe keys
grep -r 'apiKey' . # Find other API keys2. Move Secrets to Environment Variables
Create environment variables in your deployment platform. Never commit secrets to git or leave them in frontend code.
3. Enable Row Level Security
If using Supabase, enable RLS on every table. Without RLS, your database is publicly accessible.
ALTER TABLE your_table ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;4. Write RLS Policies
Create policies that restrict data access to the appropriate users.
CREATE POLICY "Users read own data" ON your_table
FOR SELECT TO authenticated
USING ((select auth.uid()) = user_id);5. Configure Security Headers
Add Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and other security headers in your hosting platform configuration.
6. Run a Security Scan
Use VAS to scan your deployed application for vulnerabilities before launching to production.

Ready to Secure Your App?
Security is an ongoing process, not a one-time checklist. After implementing these steps, use VAS to verify your Antigravity app is secure before launch, and consider regular scans as you add new features.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find hardcoded secrets in Antigravity-generated code?
Search your codebase using grep: 'grep -r "sk-" .' for OpenAI keys, 'grep -r "sk_live" .' for Stripe keys. Also search for 'apiKey', 'secret', and 'password'. Move all secrets to environment variables.
Does Antigravity configure database security automatically?
No. Like other AI coding tools, Antigravity creates functional code but often skips security configuration. You must manually enable Row Level Security on Supabase tables and write appropriate access policies.
What's the fastest way to secure an Antigravity app?
1) Search for and remove hardcoded secrets, 2) Enable RLS on all database tables, 3) Add security headers, 4) Run a VAS scan to catch anything you missed. This covers the most common vulnerabilities.
Can I use Antigravity for production apps?
Yes, but you must review and harden the generated code first. Treat Antigravity output as a starting point that needs security configuration before deployment.
