Lovable Audit Stinger

Lovable Audit Stinger

This stinger audits Lovable-built applications on Supabase backends: Postgres/RLS posture, Edge Function gating, the authentication plane's configuration, and what the shipped client bundle exposes. It produces findings ledgers, control-effectiveness attestations, and known-unknowns — reports, never patches. Every factual claim it makes traces to its own research archive under references/research/; if a claim isn't in the archive, it isn't a fact yet.

When to use

• Auditing a Lovable-built web app or its Supabase project (RLS, functions, auth, storage surface)
• Classifying observed denials — embedded 42501-class codes, PGRST2xx, function gating — into verified controls vs findings
• Extracting embedded keys, endpoints, and third-party hosts from a shipped JS bundle as audit evidence
• Triaging audit observations into the operator's tier taxonomy and shaping them into a report

When not to use

• Generic web-app security review with no Supabase/Lovable stack — route to security-stinger instead
• Fixing what an audit finds — this stinger reports; remediation is a separate, separately-authorized engagement
• Harness-format or Hive-component questions — queen-bee-stinger owns creation, beekeeper-suit owns routing

Procedure

1. Confirm the audit surface splits into its four layers — auth, data, functions, client-side exposure — and confirm authority over the target before any probe.
2. Run bundle forensics first (guides/bundle-forensics.md): keys, endpoints, table/RPC inventories out of the shipped JS, archived with documented offsets. The inventories become the named inputs to everything downstream — nothing is guessed.
3. Run auth-posture readout (guides/auth-posture.md): settings, confirmation gating, rate-limit shapes, token anatomy. Non-mutating or fully-disclosed synthetic probes only.
4. Run differential visibility (guides/differential-visibility.md) per resource: the anon-vs-authenticated delta is the policy signal; reads only.
5. Run write-denial discrimination (guides/write-denial-discrimination.md) where write-path controls must be proven: minimal labeled writes, embedded-code classification, mandatory cleanup and post-cleanup re-read.
6. Run RPC & function-surface enumeration (guides/rpc-function-enumeration.md) on the client-named inventory: gates, role deltas, availability failures isolated from configuration.
7. Close with audit reporting (guides/audit-reporting.md): ledger hygiene, tier assignment per the operator taxonomy, unknowns stated, hygiene section attested.

References map

• references/probe-tables.md — load when: classifying any observed denial, shape, or gating response; the embedded-code table is authoritative over HTTP status.
• references/worked-examples.md — load when: a probe sequence needs its validated shape before execution; six worked sequences with observed outcomes.
• references/reporting.md — load when: shaping findings into the report; ledger schema, tier mapping, skeleton, grounding line.
• references/research/distillation.md — load when: a domain claim needs verification or a dispute needs settling; the cited distillation of this component's own archive.
• references/research/raw/ — load when: tracing any distilled claim back to its primary source, official or empirical.
• guides/ (six verb guides) — load when: executing a specific audit verb; each states preconditions, procedure, validated expected shapes, anti-patterns.

• security-stinger — general security audit passes; owns non-Supabase surface and the Ship Gate's first gate.
• auth-stinger — authentication-flow deep work; this stinger stops at posture readout and defers flow-level analysis.
• beekeeper-suit — roster and routing; owns dispatch decisions and hosts this pair's registration.
• lovable-audit-worker-bee — the paired worker agent; the orchestrator delegates sustained audit waves to it rather than running them inline.
