## Security checks and site metadata [#security-checks-and-site-metadata]

Publish includes a security scan. If confirmation is required, the publish card can ask you to confirm. If the issue is fixable, use AI Fix to send the problem back to the editing agent. The publish flow also captures site metadata supported by the code path, including title, icon, and description metadata when available.
