Docker app built with Cursor? Let’s review it.
Expert code review for Docker apps built with Cursor. We find Cursor-specific bugs, fix Docker security issues, and optimize performance. From $19.
Cursor issues we find in Docker projects
Problems specific to Cursor's code generation patterns when building Docker apps.
Exposed API keys in client code
Cursor often places sensitive keys and secrets directly in client-side components or .env files without the NEXT_PUBLIC prefix distinction, making them accessible in the browser.
Missing input validation on API routes
Server actions and API routes generated by Cursor frequently accept user input without sanitization or schema validation, opening the door to injection attacks.
Unhandled async errors
Cursor wraps code in try/catch inconsistently. Failed API calls, database queries, and file operations often crash the app silently or show raw error messages to users.
Race conditions in state management
Multiple rapid state updates or concurrent API calls cause stale data, UI flickers, and inconsistent behavior — especially in forms and real-time features.
Docker issues we check for
Common Docker problems that affect production readiness.
Running as root user
Containers running processes as root, so a container breakout gives the attacker root access to the host system.
Secrets baked into image layers
API keys, database passwords, or .env files copied into the Docker image during build, permanently stored in image layers even if deleted later.
Bloated image size
Using full OS base images (ubuntu, node:latest) instead of slim or alpine variants, resulting in 1GB+ images that are slow to pull and deploy.
No multi-stage build
Build dependencies (compilers, dev packages) included in the production image, increasing size and attack surface.

Frequently asked questions
Can you review Docker code generated by Cursor?
Yes. We regularly audit Docker projects built with Cursor and understand the specific patterns and issues it introduces. Our review covers security, performance, and deployment readiness.
What Docker issues does Cursor typically create?
Common issues in Cursor-generated Docker code include: exposed api keys in client code, missing input validation on api routes, unhandled async errors. Combined with Docker-specific concerns like running as root user and secrets baked into image layers.
How do I make my Cursor Docker project production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of issues. For Cursor-built Docker projects, the typical path is: fix security gaps, address Docker-specific performance issues, then configure deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to review Cursor-generated Docker code?
Our code audit starts at $19 and covers security, performance, architecture, and deployment readiness. For fixes, our Fix & Ship plan is $199. Larger projects get a custom fixed quote — no hourly billing or surprises.
