This update is all about keeping your apps safer and making team management easier. It’s especially useful if you’re building serious projects that handle user logins or sensitive data, and it gives teams better tools to organize their work.
What's new
- Security scanning while you build: Replit's AI Agent now acts like a security guard. As it writes and changes your code, it automatically scans for risky patterns or hardcoded secrets (like passwords accidentally left in the code) so it can fix them before finishing the job.
- Resetting database passwords: You can now generate new passwords (credentials) for your live, production database right from the Database tool. If your app is already live on the internet, Replit will automatically restart it so it connects with the new password without skipping a beat. Just remember to update any outside tools that use the old password.
- Building with SSO: Single Sign-On (SSO) is a secure way for companies to let employees log in using one central system instead of a new password for every app. If you use a tool called Clerk to manage logins, you can now ask the AI Agent to set up SSO. It will guide you to the Clerk Dashboard to connect services like Okta or Microsoft Entra ID. This feature is free until October 1, 2026.
- Moving projects between workspaces: If your team has different workspaces (like separate groups for different classes or departments), you can now move a project from one to another right from your Projects list. The move happens in the background, but it can't be undone. Note that any linked secret passwords won't move with the project, so you'll have to set them up again in the new workspace.
Improvements
- The AI Agent's code review process is now smarter. It uses a tool called Semgrep to automatically look for security flaws while it works, meaning you get safer code without having to run a separate security check yourself.
