Installation Methods
VS Code & Cursor Extension
The BLAZLE IDE Extension provides real-time security scanning as you or your AI (Cursor/Copilot) write code. It hooks into the file save event and validates the document against BLAZLE policies.
Installation
Download the extension and install it from the VSIX file:
- After downloading the
blazle-vscode-1.0.0.vsixfile, open the Extensions panel in VS Code (Ctrl+Shift+X). - Click the Views and More Actions button (
...) at the top right of the Extensions panel. - Select Install from VSIX... and choose the downloaded file.
Configuration
Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P) and run:
> BLAZLE: Set API Key
Paste your blz_live_... API key. The extension needs the BLAZLE local proxy running on port 8081: download it for your computer and start it first.
How it works
Whenever a file is saved, the extension formats the document as a Git Diff and sends it to the Local Proxy's http://localhost:8081/intercept/diff API. Scanning happens on your machine, so results come back in well under a millisecond. If secrets are found, they are immediately highlighted with red squiggly lines directly in your editor.
