for this Breaking News: Yesterday, a very prolific platform, Vercel, announced a security incident. You can read the details here.

And guess who is using Vercel? Moi. So, I immediately prompted Claude to assess potential vulnerabilities in my stack. Fortunately, a decision I made early on for completely different reasons turned out to be the right call here. My sensitive keys live in Railway, my backend platform — completely separate from Vercel’s systems.

Needless to say, anyone using Vercel should review their environment variables and rotate.

Back to our regularly scheduled programming.
