IDE-Native Security: Bringing Alprina Into Zed and VS Code

Security tooling should meet developers where they work. That is why Alprina ships deep integrations for Zed, VS Code (via the ACP protocol), and JetBrains support in private beta. These integrations make it effortless to bring AI-guided security into your everyday code reviews.

Chat-first collaboration

Open the Alprina panel and start a conversation with Claude- or GPT-powered assistants that already understand your repository. The assistant can:

• answer questions about recent scan results,
• summarize the security posture of a branch,
• propose mitigations in the form of code suggestions or configuration changes.

Because Alprina anchors every response with links to evidence, developers always know where the insight originated—whether that is a local scan, a remote test, or a policy violation.

Inline scanning and policy enforcement

With one command, developers can run local scans on the file or project they are editing. Findings appear inline with severity badges and links to detailed explanations. Policy-based security ensures the right guardrails are in place: if your organization prohibits outbound calls to certain AI APIs or requires encryption defaults, developers will see proactive warnings before code ever leaves their machine.

Move faster with automated actions

From the IDE you can trigger automated mitigation actions—generate pull requests, schedule follow-up scans, or attach evidence to an audit trail. Thanks to Alprina’s usage-based billing via Stripe, teams only pay for the AI assistance and scanning they use, making it practical to keep security checks always-on.

Developers get frictionless guidance, security teams get comprehensive coverage, and leadership gets confidence that AI-powered products are shipping safely. Install the Alprina extension, connect your workspace, and make security conversations part of every code review.
