Zod app built with Cursor? Let’s review it.
Expert code review for Zod apps built with Cursor. We find Cursor-specific bugs, fix Zod security issues, and optimize performance. From $19.
Cursor issues we find in Zod projects
Problems specific to Cursor's code generation patterns when building Zod 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.
Zod issues we check for
Common Zod problems that affect production readiness.
Incomplete schema validation
Zod schemas that validate the happy path but miss edge cases like empty strings, negative numbers, or overly long inputs that break downstream logic.
Schema-data mismatch
Zod schemas that don't match the actual API response or database shape, causing runtime parse errors that crash the application.
Missing transform and refinement
Schemas that accept raw input without transforming (trimming strings, normalizing emails) or refining (custom business rules), leading to dirty data in the database.
No error message customization
Default Zod error messages exposed directly to users, showing technical details like 'Expected string, received number' instead of user-friendly messages.
