TL;DR y veredicto
- Apunta REA a tu propia app publicada antes de que lo haga otro, y hazlo desde un sandbox desechable. Las propias notas de seguridad de REA dicen que no es un sandbox, así que el portátil con tus claves es el lugar equivocado.
- Nuestra auditoría de aidive.dev dio 15 hallazgos. La fuga real fue un endpoint de registro sin freno: cualquier web podía hacer que los navegadores de sus visitantes suscribieran cualquier dirección a nuestra lista de correo.
- Las seis reglas: ejecútalo donde no pueda hacer daño, dale una URL exacta con toda escritura bloqueada, ordena cada hallazgo antes de arreglar uno, comprueba qué envía tu bundle, pon un freno en cada endpoint abierto y vuelve a ejecutarlo y comprueba a mano antes del pull request.
- El kit incluye los dos prompts que usamos (
prompt-1-audit.md,prompt-2-fix.md), nuestra tabla de triaje real (triage-table-example.md), el cambio del Worker (worker-fix.diff), las cabeceras de seguridad (_headers) y la comprobación del bundle (check-client-bundle.mjs). - Audita solo software que poseas o estés autorizado a examinar. Es el descargo del propio REA, y apuntarlo a ti mismo queda dentro de él.
Síntesis con fuentes
Qué es REA y cómo se instala. La última versión en el momento de nuestra prueba era rea-agents 6.5.0, del 2026-10-14 s22. La instalación es npx rea-agents setup --client claude_code, y necesita Node 22.19 o superior s1. Fija la versión: sacó seis versiones en cerca de una semana. Instálalo solo desde el paquete oficial, porque han circulado copias falsas del repositorio.
Carga muchas herramientas. Los mantenedores dicen que el servidor expone 172 herramientas y unos 520 KB de esquemas, y que definir REA_MCP_INPUT_SCHEMA_PROFILE=compact es la solución cuando el contexto se desborda s7.
Regla 1, ejecútalo donde no pueda hacer daño. Las notas de seguridad lo dicen claro: "This is not a sandbox" s4. El descargo limita el uso al software que posees o estás autorizado a examinar s1. En nuestra prueba del sandbox en la nube, una app nueva tuvo una preview en vivo en 4 min 30, y la evidencia de las pruebas se quedó en la sesión en vez de llegar al pull request s5. Si una app Next.js nueva se pinta pero nada responde tras una URL de preview, la causa es el bloqueo de orígenes de desarrollo, y el arreglo es una línea allowedDevOrigins s15.
Regla 2, una URL exacta. Para una web, lanzas tú mismo el navegador en un puerto de depuración loopback y REA se conecta por CDP. Nunca lanza el navegador. Los valores de almacenamiento, las cabeceras y los cuerpos JSON se ocultan, mientras que el texto de los scripts y las query strings no s2. Si solo dices «mi app», la skill pregunta cuál.
Regla 3, ordena antes de arreglar. La skill pide exactamente esto: "Every conclusion must distinguish observations, inferences, and unknowns. Cite Evidence IDs" s3. Nuestra tabla de triaje añade una pasada más tras leer el código: fuga real, por diseño o falso positivo.
Regla 4, una barrera que aplica el navegador es una sugerencia. OWASP lo dice así: "Access control is only effective in trusted server-side code" s11. Un flag de localStorage sobre contenido que ya está en la página es una decisión de UX, no control de acceso. Decide en voz alta si es una fuga o una petición suave deliberada.
Regla 5, todo endpoint abierto que gasta el dinero de otro necesita un límite. OWASP enumera la falta de un límite de gasto en un servicio de terceros como una forma de que una API sea vulnerable s12. El binding de rate limit de Cloudflare admite un periodo de 10 o 60 segundos, y la documentación lo llama "permissive, eventually consistent" y no un sistema de contabilidad exacto s13. El endpoint de doble opt-in de Brevo es la respuesta más sólida a alguien que envía la dirección de otra persona s14.
Regla 6, comprueba a mano la nueva ejecución. Una prueba de campo de REA en una app de escritorio informó de 0 entrypoints de preload donde la app tenía 2 s6. Así que una nueva ejecución en verde demuestra poco hasta que repites cada arreglo tú mismo con curl.
Lo que encontramos en nuestra propia web. Estas cifras salen de nuestra propia prueba, no de una fuente.
- La auditoría antes de los arreglos duró 12 min 41 s y no envió ninguna petición de escritura.
- El guardián del navegador bloqueó 6 intentos del script de analítica, y ninguno llegó al formulario de registro.
- La config del sitio se enviaba a cada visitante, incluido el ID de la lista de correo y los límites del bot de comentarios: un tope diario de 100 respuestas y 5 errores para activar el interruptor de seguridad.
- El PR del arreglo hizo que
/api/subscriberespondiera 403 sin el Origin correcto, 429 por encima de 5 peticiones por 60 s por IP de cliente, y 400 sin consentimiento. - El código de cliente dejó 78 953 bytes menos de JavaScript por página una vez que solo importaba el nombre y los idiomas (532 bytes).
- Los tests del Worker pasan 9/9. El Worker anterior fallaba 6.
- La barrera de email de los packs gratis se queda a propósito. Los packs son gratis y públicos, y un formulario roto nunca debe ocultarlos.
Código
prompt-1-audit.md
We own aidive.dev and this repo is its source (the Next.js site in engine/site, the Cloudflare Worker in engine/site/worker). Audit what the SHIPPED site gives away to an outsider, with REA (Reverse Engineer Anything, github.com/morluto/rea). Install it only from the official npm package, rea-agents.
1. Install: npm i -g rea-agents@6.5.0, then rea setup --skill-client claude_code --yes --json, with REA_MCP_INPUT_SCHEMA_PROFILE=compact. If REA's MCP tools do not load in this session, use the rea CLI equivalent of each tool.
2. Start headless Chromium with --remote-debugging-port=9222 --remote-debugging-address=127.0.0.1 --user-data-dir=/tmp/rea-chrome, and open https://aidive.dev/club/ then one free resource page under https://aidive.dev/club/free-resources/.
3. Run REA on those pages: list_browser_targets, inspect_web_page, analyze_web_bundle, capture_web_screenshot. Export the scripts to a new directory outside the repo.
4. Write audit/rea-before.md: one row per finding with its Evidence ID, what it is, whether it is an observation, an inference or an unknown, and how bad it would be. Do not open the source before this step is done: the report is what a stranger sees.
5. Only then read the source and add a column per finding: real leak, by design, or false positive, with the file it comes from.
Rules: never send a POST or any write request to aidive.dev (it is production and the form writes to a real mailing list). Change no app code in this chat yet. Note how long each step took at the end of the report. Commit audit/rea-before.md.
: el prompt del chat de auditoría. Una URL exacta, toda escritura bloqueada, informe escrito antes de abrir el código.
- prompt-2-fix.md
Good report. Now fix the real leaks from audit/rea-before.md in this branch, then prove it.
1. F06, F05, S3 in engine/site/worker/index.ts: reject a request whose Origin header is not https://aidive.dev (403); add a Cloudflare Workers Rate Limiting binding (ratelimits in wrangler.template.jsonc and in the jsonc that scripts/channel.mjs writes, keyed on the client IP, 5 requests per 60 s, 429 above); require a consent flag in the body, send it from the email gate form, and store the consent time with the contact; drop updateEnabled.
2. F08: the browser must only get what it reads. Split the config so client components (email-gate, locale-switcher) import a small client-safe object (name and locales), and keep club, autoReply, contentDir and the other locales' copy out of the client bundle.
3. U1: add security headers for the static assets (a _headers file in public/: Content-Security-Policy with frame-ancestors 'none', X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security), and check the pages still render.
4. F01, F02, F03, S1, S2: the club email gate is a deliberate soft ask (the packs are free and public on GitHub, and a broken form must never hide them). Do not move content behind the server. Write that decision in audit/decisions.md, finding by finding. Same for F13 (the Cloudflare beacon is a dashboard setting, not the repo).
5. Run tsc and lint, then pnpm build. Test the Worker locally only (wrangler dev serving out/): a POST without the right Origin gets 403, a sixth POST within 60 s gets 429, a POST without consent gets 400, a valid one gets 204 with Brevo mocked. Never call aidive.dev or the real Brevo API.
6. Re-run the same REA steps against the local build and write audit/rea-after.md with the same table and a before/after column. Check each fixed finding by hand with curl too, because REA can miss things.
7. Commit and open a pull request whose body links both reports and lists what changed, what stays by design, and what is still unknown. Note the timings again.

# REA audit of aidive.dev: what the shipped site gives away
Date: 2026-10-17 (UTC). Tool: REA `rea-agents@6.5.0`, installed from npm.
Targets: `https://aidive.dev/club/` and `https://aidive.dev/club/free-resources/claude-code-limit-cut-levers/`.
The first five columns of the findings table are the outsider view. They were written from REA evidence
and the shipped scripts only, before any source file of this repository was opened
(commit `7e10d79` has that version alone). The last two columns, **Verdict** and **Source**, were added in step 5 after reading the source.
## Summary
- **The email gate does not protect the packs.** Each pack reaches every visitor in three ways without an email:
the page HTML (F01), a raw markdown copy at `/club/free-resources/<slug>.md` (S1), and the pack files under `/files/` (S2).
The gate is a client-side overlay over a static export (F02, F03).
- **`/api/subscribe` writes to the real Brevo list with no brake.** It has no rate limit, no CAPTCHA, no Origin check and no double opt-in, and it records no consent (F05, F06).
Any website can make its visitors' browsers subscribe any address.
- **The whole site config ships to the browser** (F08). This includes values that are not public elsewhere, because this repository is private:
the Brevo list ID, the YouTube auto-reply limits and the build layout.
- **No response security headers** (U1, now real): no CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, nosniff or Referrer-Policy.
- **Clean:** no source maps, no secrets or API keys in the bundles, no storage, no cookies, and nothing in the console.

Source paths are relative to the repository root. `engine/site/` is shortened to `site/`.
## Findings
Kind: **Observation** = seen directly in the evidence. **Inference** = concluded from what was seen.
**Unknown** = REA could not see it. Severity is "how bad it would be" for the site: High, Medium, Low, Info, None.
Verdict (step 5): **Real leak** = the source confirms it and nothing shows it is intended.
**By design** = the source shows it is intended or unavoidable. **False positive** = the source contradicts the outsider reading.
| # | Evidence | Finding | Kind | Severity | Verdict (step 5) | Source |
|---|----------|---------|------|----------|------------------|--------|
| F01 | E3, E7, E9 (inline script `source-1`) | The whole gated pack ships to every visitor. The page HTML carries the article (TL;DR, measurements table, "Do this Monday" checklist, sources, FAQ) in its inline RSC payload. While the email dialog is open, the accessibility tree exposes about 11.6 KB of that text (13 headings, 60 table cells). The screenshot shows it only blurred. View source, reader mode, a screen reader, `curl` or JS turned off all read it without an email. | Observation | High (the email gate protects nothing) | **Real leak.** The site is a static export, and the pack is rendered at build time into the HTML. The gate can only hide it, not withhold it. | `site/next.config.ts` (`output: 'export'`), `site/src/lib/resources.ts` (`renderResourceHtml`), `site/src/components/pages/resource-page.tsx`, `site/src/app/(default)/club/free-resources/[slug]/page.tsx` |
| F02 | E9, chunk `1t27yr-aialmx.js` (`EmailGate`) | The gate is client-side only. It opens 1500 ms after load unless `localStorage[SITE.name.toLowerCase() + ":club:unlocked"] === "1"`. With `SITE.name = "AIDive"` (F08) the key is `aidive:club:unlocked`. One line in the console removes the gate for good. | Observation (key value: Inference) | Medium (the mechanism behind F01) | **Real leak** (same root cause as F01). Key confirmed: `aidive:club:unlocked`. | `site/src/components/email-gate.tsx` (`KEY`, `DELAY_MS`, `readUnlocked`) |
| F03 | E9, `1t27yr-aialmx.js` | The gate fails open. A network error, a 6 s timeout, or any response other than `400 {error: "invalid" or "disposable"}` unlocks the page (`console.warn("subscribe failed, unlocking")`). Blocking `/api/subscribe` in DevTools unlocks without an email. | Observation | Low (F01 already exposes the content) | **By design.** The code comment says: "a broken form must never hide a free page". The Worker's `405`, `502 upstream` and `503 disabled` answers also unlock. | `site/src/components/email-gate.tsx`, `site/worker/index.ts` |
| F04 | E4, E5 (endpoint candidate), E9 | The subscribe contract is readable: `POST /api/subscribe`, JSON `{email, lang, source}`, `source = location.pathname + location.search`. The server answers `invalid` and `disposable`, so a disposable-domain filter exists. | Observation | Low (gives a script writer the exact contract) | **By design** (a public form needs a public endpoint). Note: the disposable list has only 10 domains. | `site/worker/index.ts`, `site/worker/disposable-domains.ts` |
| F05 | E9, `1t27yr-aialmx.js` | The request has no consent field. The "I agree to receive AIDive emails" checkbox is only HTML `required`. A scripted call and a checked box look the same to the server. No consent text version or timestamp comes from the client. | Inference | Medium (proof of consent depends on server logging, see U3) | **Real leak** (a confirmed gap, not a data leak). The Worker sends Brevo only `email`, `listIds`, `LANG` and `SOURCE`. It stores no consent flag, timestamp or consent text version. | `site/worker/index.ts` |
| F06 | E9, `1t27yr-aialmx.js` | No anti-bot or anti-CSRF token goes with the subscribe call: no Turnstile, reCAPTCHA or hCaptcha, no CSRF token. Anyone can script the subscription of third-party addresses into the real mailing list. | Inference (server-side rate limits/double opt-in: U3) | Medium to High without rate limit or double opt-in, Low with them (see U3) | **Real leak; severity High.** No rate limit, no Origin check and no double opt-in: the contact is created directly with `POST /v3/contacts`. `request.json()` parses the body whatever its content type, so a cross-site `text/plain` POST needs no CORS preflight. Any website can make its visitors' browsers subscribe any address. Read from the code only; no POST was sent. | `site/worker/index.ts` |
| F07 | E9, `1t27yr-aialmx.js` | `source` takes the query string as is. Any visitor controls a free-text value stored with their subscription, for example `?x=anything`. | Inference | Low (pollution of list attributes) | **By design.** The query string carries UTM attribution: the `/r/<code>` short links add `utm_*`. The Worker cuts `SOURCE` to 120 characters. Free text is still stored. | `site/scripts/emit-md.mjs` (`_redirects`), `site/worker/index.ts` |
| F08 | E8, E9, chunk `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` | The whole site config ships as one `JSON.parse('…')` in a shared chunk loaded on both pages: about 59 KB of JSON, with the copy for 15 locales. Public values in it: name, URL, `email: contact@aidive.dev`, YouTube channel, founding date, timezone `Europe/Paris`. Operational values: F08a to F08d. | Observation | Low (Info for the public values) | **Real leak.** `site.ts` imports all of `generated/site.json`. Two client components, `email-gate.tsx` and `locale-switcher.tsx`, import `SITE`, so the bundler ships every key. They use only `name` and the locales. | `site/src/lib/site.ts`, `site/src/components/email-gate.tsx`, `site/src/components/locale-switcher.tsx`, generated by `site/scripts/channel.mjs` from `channel.config.json` |
| F08a | E8, E9, `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` | `club.repo = {owner: "aidive-yt", name: "aidive-resources", commitAs: {name: "AI Dive", email: "339050828+aidive-yt@users.noreply.github.com"}}`. It names the repository where the packs probably live, plus the bot commit identity and its GitHub numeric user ID. | Observation | Medium if the repository is public (all packs readable, see U4). Low if private (reconnaissance only) | **By design.** `aidive-yt/aidive-resources` is public (H1: anonymous GitHub API 200). Pack pages link each file "on GitHub". `commitAs` is not used by the site, but the same noreply address is on every public commit of that repo. | `site/src/lib/resources.ts` (`renderResourceHtml`), `channel.config.json` (`club.repo`) |
| F08b | E8, E9, `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` | `club.brevoListId = 3`. It confirms the email provider and the target list. | Observation | Low (useless without the Brevo API key) | **Real leak** (Low). Needed only at build time, to write `BREVO_LIST_ID` into `wrangler.jsonc`. The client never reads it. | `channel.config.json`, `site/scripts/channel.mjs` (`club: site.club ?? null`, verbatim) |
| F08c | E8, E9, `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` | `club.autoReply.youtube = {dailyCap: 100, breakerErrors: 5}`. It reveals a YouTube auto-reply bot, its daily cap and its circuit-breaker threshold. | Observation | Low (someone who can cause 5 errors knows how to trip the breaker: Inference) | **Real leak** (Low). No code in `engine/site` reads `autoReply`. It reaches the client only because `channel.mjs` copies the club block verbatim. | `channel.config.json`, `site/scripts/channel.mjs` |
| F08d | E8, E9, `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` | `contentDir = "../../channel/site/content"`. It shows the build-time monorepo layout. | Observation | Info | **Real leak** (Info). Used only at build time and on the server. | `site/scripts/channel.mjs`, read by `site/src/lib/content.ts` and `site/src/lib/resources.ts` |
| F08e | E4, E8, `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` | Every first load downloads the copy for all 15 locales (78 KB raw chunk), whatever the page language. | Observation | Low (performance, not security) | **Real** (performance, same root cause as F08). | `site/src/lib/site.ts`, `site/scripts/channel.mjs` (`copy`) |
| F09 | E4, E5 | No source maps. None of the 19 (club) and 10 (free resource) analyzed scripts declares a `sourceMappingURL`. `source_maps.requested = 0`. | Observation | None (good) | **By design.** `productionBrowserSourceMaps` is not set, and its default is off. | `site/next.config.ts` |
| F10 | E4, E5 (`vendor_fingerprint`) | Stack fingerprint: Next.js (App Router, Turbopack build, RSC payloads) and React. | Inference (REA confidence high and medium) | Info | **By design** (it cannot be hidden in practice). | `site/package.json` |
| F11 | E2, E3 (storage, workers, console) | No localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB or Cache Storage entry, and no worker, before unlock. The console stayed silent during the observation window. | Observation | None (good) | **By design.** The only storage write is the unlock key, after the form (F02). No cookie code exists, and `/club/` sends no `Set-Cookie` (H1). | `site/src/components/email-gate.tsx` |
| F12 | E3 (`dom_urls`) | The gated page links 14 other locale versions (`/fr/`, `/de/`, …, `/zh-TW/`) and `/videos/<slug>/`. Each locale probably ships the same pack under the same gate. | Observation (links), Inference (same exposure) | Info (multiplies F01) | **By design** (i18n). The same exposure as F01 applies to every locale. | `site/src/app/[lang]/club/free-resources/[slug]/page.tsx` |
| F13 | G1; E2, E3 (1 script excluded as other origin) | Each page view loads `static.cloudflareinsights.com/beacon.min.js` and tries `POST /cdn-cgi/rum` (Cloudflare Web Analytics). The privacy copy shipped in `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` covers only the unlock flow and does not name it. | Observation (requests), Inference (privacy gap) | Low | **Real leak** (privacy notice gap), **not from the repo.** The layouts render the beacon only when `SITE.club.analyticsToken` is set, and it is not set. The beacon comes from Cloudflare's automatic Web Analytics injection on the zone (dashboard setting). | `site/src/app/(default)/layout.tsx`, `site/src/app/[lang]/layout.tsx` (tag off); notice in `channel/site/copy/<locale>.json` |
| F14 | G1 | Next.js prefetch exposes the route tree: `HEAD` and `__next._tree.txt` / `__next.!KGRlZmF1bHQp….__PAGE__.txt` requests for `/`, `/club/`, `/about/`, `/contact/`, `/club/free-resources/` and the resource slugs. The dynamic segment is `$d$slug` (`[slug]`). | Observation | Info (public routes only) | **By design** (Next.js `<Link>` prefetch, public routes only). | `site/src/app/` route tree |
| F15 | E9, `3f4cx_6a3wsgs.js` and `1t27yr-aialmx.js` | The privacy copy says it stores "the address of that page". The client sends the path and the query string (UTM tags, referral codes, anything). | Inference | Low | **Real leak** (Low, notice wording). `SOURCE` holds up to 120 characters of path and query string. | `channel/site/copy/en.json` (and the 14 other locales), `site/src/components/email-gate.tsx`, `site/worker/index.ts` |
| U1 | E2, E3 (`metadata.responses` empty, `attach_limited`) | Response headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, cache) were not captured, because REA attaches after the page loads. | Unknown | Not rated | **Resolved: real leak, Low to Medium.** H1 `HEAD /club/` returns only `cache-control: public, max-age=0, must-revalidate` and `server: cloudflare`: no CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options or Referrer-Policy. The subscribe form can be framed. | No `_headers` file in the repo; `site/wrangler.jsonc` sets none |
| U2 | E3 (`dom_urls`) | `/llms.txt` and `/feed.xml` are linked from the page. REA did not fetch them. If they carry the pack bodies, they are one more way past the gate. | Unknown | High if they carry pack bodies | **Resolved: false positive** for these files. `llms.txt`, `llms-full.txt` and `feed.xml` list articles and link pack pages, but carry no pack bodies. The same build script does publish the bodies elsewhere: see S1. | `site/src/app/llms.txt/route.ts`, `site/src/app/feed.xml/route.ts`, `site/scripts/emit-md.mjs` |
| U3 | E4, E5 (limitation: "server-side behavior may remain unknown") | Server side of `/api/subscribe`: rate limit, double opt-in, consent logging, disposable list, what reaches Brevo. It cannot be tested without a POST, and POSTs to production are not allowed here. | Unknown | Decides F05 and F06 | **Resolved from source:** none of the four protections exist (F05, F06). `updateEnabled: true` lets anyone overwrite `LANG` and `SOURCE` on an existing contact (S3). | `site/worker/index.ts` |
| U4 | F08a | Whether `aidive-yt/aidive-resources` is public. | Unknown | Decides F08a | **Resolved: public**, and linked from the pack pages (F08a). | H1; `site/src/lib/resources.ts` |
| U5 | E2, E3 (limitations) | Traffic before REA attached (first document, cookies) is not in the REA evidence. REA keeps no cookie or header values. | Unknown | Not rated | **Resolved for cookies: none.** There is no cookie code in `site/src` or `site/worker`, and `/club/` sends no `Set-Cookie` (H1). The guard log G1 holds the full request list. | `site/src`, `site/worker` |
### Step 5 additions: outsider-reachable, found by reading the source
REA did not observe these. Each was confirmed on production with a HEAD request only (H1).
| # | Finding | Severity | Verdict | Source |
|---|---------|----------|---------|--------|
| S1 | `/club/free-resources/<slug>.md` serves each published pack as markdown, with every `{{file:…}}` inlined, and no gate. `HEAD /club/free-resources/claude-code-limit-cut-levers.md` returns `200 text/markdown`. The path follows the same pattern as the `/videos/<slug>.md` alternates that `llms.txt` advertises, so it is easy to guess. | High (the whole pack in machine-readable form) | **Real leak** | `site/scripts/emit-md.mjs` (writes `out/club/free-resources/<rslug>.md`) |
| S2 | Pack files are static assets at `/club/free-resources/<pack>/files/<name>`, with no gate. The gated page lists their download links in its DOM. `HEAD …/haiku-5-5-claude-code-routing/files/README.md` returns `200`. | Medium (the same files are public on GitHub, F08a) | **Real leak** (consistent with the public repo, but it defeats the gate) | `site/scripts/sync-assets.mjs`, `site/src/components/pages/resource-page.tsx` |
| S3 | The Worker sends Brevo `updateEnabled: true`. Resubmitting someone's address overwrites their `LANG` and `SOURCE` attributes. | Low | **Real leak** | `site/worker/index.ts` |

`reverse-engineer-anything` skill. It registers no MCP server, so REA's MCP tools did not load in this session.
Every tool ran as its CLI equivalent: `rea list-browser-targets`, `rea inspect-web-page`, `rea analyze-web-bundle`,
`rea capture-web-screenshot` and `rea export-web-scripts`.
2. Headless Chromium 156 ran with `--remote-debugging-port=9222 --remote-debugging-address=127.0.0.1 --user-data-dir=/tmp/rea-chrome`.
3. **No write reached aidive.dev.** A small CDP guard attached to every tab before it navigated.
It let only GET, HEAD and OPTIONS through and failed every other method. It blocked 6 `POST /cdn-cgi/rum`
attempts (the Cloudflare beacon) over two browser runs. No request to `/api/subscribe` was made,
and no non-GET/HEAD/OPTIONS request reached aidive.dev.
The first run had a guard bug and opened `/club/` three times (GET only). Chromium was restarted from a clean profile for the evidence above.
4. REA runs: `inspect-web-page` with `--observation-ms 3000 --include-accessibility-text --include-console-text --include-json-body-shapes --include-script-sources --include-storage-keys`.
`analyze-web-bundle` with `--observation-ms 5000 --fetch-source-maps`. All runs were limited to `--allowed-origins https://aidive.dev`.
5. Scripts were exported to `/tmp/rea-audit/scripts-club/` and `/tmp/rea-audit/scripts-free/`, outside the repository.
They were read with `grep` and a parser only, never executed.
6. Repository contact before step 5: one directory listing at the start of the session showed file names
in `engine/site/` and `engine/site/worker/` (`disposable-domains.ts`, `index.ts`). No file content was opened.
7. H1 checks in step 5, all read-only: `HEAD` on `/club/`, `/club/free-resources/claude-code-limit-cut-levers.md`,
`/club/free-resources/haiku-5-5-claude-code-routing/files/README.md` and `/llms-full.txt`.
Anonymous `GET` on `api.github.com/repos/aidive-yt/aidive-resources` returned 200 (public).
Anonymous `GET` on `api.github.com/repos/aidive-yt/aidive-site` returned 404 (private to outsiders).
Because this repository is private, the F08 values are not public anywhere else.
8. No application code was changed.

check-client-bundle.mjs on GitHub
: un paso de build que falla cuando una clave de config solo de servidor llega a un archivo publicado. -README.md
The REA self-audit kit: the two prompts we gave Claude Code in the sandbox (audit, then fix), our real triage table, and the Worker, header and bundle-check changes we shipped.
: lo que contiene el kit, en un párrafo.Haz esto el lunes
- Abre un sandbox desechable sobre tu repositorio, o una máquina virtual local, y nunca ejecutes la auditoría en tu propia máquina.
- Instala REA desde el paquete oficial, fijado a una versión, con el perfil de esquemas compacto.
- Lanza un navegador en un puerto de depuración loopback con un perfil nuevo y bloquea toda petición de escritura antes de que cargue ninguna página.
- Dale a REA una URL exacta y ejecuta
prompt-1-audit.md. Haz commit del informe antes de abrir ningún archivo fuente. - Marca cada hallazgo como observación, inferencia o incógnita, y luego como fuga real, por diseño o falso positivo. Anota los casos por diseño con su coste.
- Busca en tu JavaScript publicado tus propias claves de config, y añade
check-client-bundle.mjsal build. - Pon una comprobación de Origin, un rate limit y un flag de consentimiento en el servidor en cada endpoint que llame a un servicio de pago.
- Vuelve a ejecutar los mismos pasos de REA, repite cada arreglo con curl y luego abre el pull request con ambos informes en su cuerpo.
Para ir más lejos
Doble opt-in. Un Origin falsificado desde un script, más muchas IP, aún puede suscribir a otras personas, porque el limitador de Cloudflare cuenta por ubicación y es eventualmente consistente s13. El endpoint de doble opt-in de Brevo necesita una plantilla, una URL de redirección y un ID de lista, y el contacto entra en la lista solo tras el clic s14. No lo incluimos en este pull request.
Cabeceras de respuesta en las respuestas del Worker. Nuestro archivo _headers cubre solo los assets estáticos. Las respuestas que construye el propio Worker, como /api/subscribe, no reciben esas cabeceras. Defínelas en el código del Worker. Nuestro script-src también conserva 'unsafe-inline', que la exportación estática necesita.
El aviso de privacidad. Nuestro texto de privacidad dice que guarda la dirección de la página, pero el campo de origen guardado también contiene la query string. Es un cambio de redacción en cada archivo de idioma, y un buen ejemplo de hallazgo que no es código. Si mantienes una baliza de analítica inyectada desde un panel, nómbrala también en el texto de privacidad.
Lo que dejamos abierto. HSTS funciona sin includeSubDomains ni preload hasta que se sepa que cada subdominio sirve HTTPS. La CSP con la baliza de analítica inyectada no se pudo observar en local, así que vuelve a ejecutar la auditoría sobre la web publicada tras el despliegue.
Otros análisis. El hilo de Hacker News sobre REA tiene la crítica más afilada y una lectura de un defensor: mantén en el servidor todo lo que puedas s8. Dos intentos escritos sobre la app de una persona listan hallazgos y proponen arreglos sin aplicarlos ni volver a ejecutar la auditoría s9 s10.
FAQ
¿Es legal ejecutar REA sobre mi propia app? El descargo de REA cubre el análisis lícito de software que posees o estás autorizado a examinar s1. Tu propia web encaja. La de otra persona no, salvo que te haya autorizado por escrito.
¿Por qué no ejecutarlo en mi portátil? Las notas de seguridad del proyecto dicen que no es un sandbox s4. Maneja un navegador y ejecuta herramientas descargadas, así que una máquina desechable mantiene cualquier daño dentro de ella. Kosuke, el sandbox que usamos, nos dio acceso gratis a su plan superior, pero una máquina virtual local o un contenedor hacen el mismo trabajo. Si eliges Kosuke, escribe el código AIDIVE2026 en el campo «Promo code» justo después de registrarte y tendrás 30 $ de crédito en vez de 10 $.
¿Debería la barrera de email de mi contenido gratis pasar al servidor? Solo si el contenido no está pensado para ser gratis. El contenido que está en la página estática se puede leer sin la barrera, así que esta pide por favor y no impone nada. Mantuvimos la nuestra a propósito y anotamos la razón hallazgo por hallazgo. El contenido de pago o solo para miembros nunca debe entrar en la exportación estática s11.
¿Cierra un rate limit por sí solo el agujero del registro? No. Frena una avalancha, pero un script puede falsificar la cabecera Origin y el limitador cuenta por ubicación s13. Combínalo con el consentimiento comprobado en el servidor y, idealmente, con doble opt-in.
Las herramientas de REA no aparecen tras el setup. ¿Qué hago? En nuestra prueba, el setup instaló la skill pero ningún servidor de herramientas, y Claude Code usó la versión en línea de comandos de cada herramienta. Llama a los mismos pasos desde la terminal en vez de reiniciar.
