Security Review

This goes beyond pattern matching to reason about code the way a security researcher would, tracing data flows across files and catching vulnerabilities that grep won't find. It covers the usual suspects (SQL injection, XSS, command injection, exposed secrets) plus access control bugs, weak crypto, and business logic flaws across eight languages. Every finding includes severity ratings, exploitation context, and a concrete patch you review before applying. The workflow is thorough: dependency audit first, then secrets scan, then deep vulnerability analysis with cross-file tracing, followed by a self-verification pass to filter false positives. If you've ever wanted a second pair of eyes that actually understands what your code does, not just what it looks like, this is worth running before you ship.

Security Review

An AI-powered security scanner that reasons about your codebase the way a human security researcher would — tracing data flows, understanding component interactions, and catching vulnerabilities that pattern-matching tools miss.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the request involves:

  • Scanning a codebase or file for security vulnerabilities
  • Running a security review or vulnerability check
  • Checking for SQL injection, XSS, command injection, or other injection flaws
  • Finding exposed API keys, hardcoded secrets, or credentials in code
  • Auditing dependencies for known CVEs
  • Reviewing authentication, authorization, or access control logic
  • Detecting insecure cryptography or weak randomness
  • Performing a data flow analysis to trace user input to dangerous sinks
  • Any request phrasing like "is my code secure?", "scan this file", or "check my repo for vulnerabilities"
  • Running /security-review or /security-review <path>
