Why AI-built apps get this
An AI builder gives you HTTPS on the hosted address and stops there. The moment you point your own domain at it, the redirect, the certificate and every hard-coded http:// in a copied snippet become yours. Nothing in the build warns you, because from the inside everything still works.
What it affects
Nothing on the page is pulled over a plain connection.
What the evidence line looks like
GET http://example.com returned 301 to https://example.com, certificate valid to 2026-12-01
Every finding on a result carries a line like this one: the request that was made and the answer that came back. You can run the same request yourself and get the same answer, which is the point.
The fix
Nothing to change here.
Prompt for your coding agent
Keep all asset references on https.
A result gives you this prompt written for your builder, in its own dialect, and a batch prompt that carries every fix at once.
