Automated Code Review Misses Critical Security Issues Before Shipping

Existing automated code review tools fail to catch critical security vulnerabilities before pull requests are merged, leaving teams exposed to production-level risks. This gap is structural: most tools optimize for style and syntax while security issues require deeper semantic analysis. Teams that rely on automated review alone are systematically underprotected.

These performance issues interrupt developer workflow and make Jira unreliable as a real-time source of truth. Search also surfaces incorrect or outdated results, compounding the trust problem.
