Fix Your AI-Built Pusher Integration
Real-time messaging infrastructure for web and mobile apps. AI tools expose app secrets client-side, skip channel authorization, and mishandle connection lifecycle.
Common Pusher issues we find
Problems specific to AI-generated Pusher integrations.
App secret exposed in client-side code
AI-generated code includes the Pusher app secret in the browser bundle instead of keeping it server-side only, allowing anyone to broadcast events on your channels.
Private and presence channels not authenticated
Generated code subscribes to private- and presence- channels without implementing the server-side auth endpoint, causing subscriptions to silently fail.
No reconnection handling
AI tools establish a Pusher connection but don't handle disconnection events, meaning users stop receiving real-time updates after network interruptions without any indication.
Message ordering not guaranteed or handled
Generated code assumes events arrive in order, but Pusher doesn't guarantee ordering. AI tools don't implement sequence numbers or timestamps to reorder events.
Channel name collisions across users
AI tools use generic channel names like 'notifications' instead of user-scoped names like 'private-user-{id}', causing all users to receive each other's events.

Frequently asked questions
Why are my Pusher private channels not working?
AI tools subscribe to private channels without implementing the required server-side auth endpoint at /pusher/auth. Pusher's client library makes a POST request to this endpoint for every private channel subscription, and without it, the subscription is rejected.
Is my AI-generated Pusher setup leaking data between users?
If your code uses public channels for user-specific data, yes. AI tools commonly broadcast sensitive events to channels that any connected client can subscribe to. User-specific data must use private or presence channels with proper authorization.
How do I handle Pusher reconnections in my AI-built real-time feature?
AI tools only handle the initial connection. You need to listen for state_change events, implement exponential backoff on reconnection, and fetch missed events from your API when reconnecting after a disconnection.
