What this skill does

This skill enables Claude to conduct a security-focused code review using the security-agent plugin. It analyzes code for potential vulnerabilities like SQL injection, XSS, authentication flaws, and insecure dependencies. Claude uses this skill when the user explicitly requests a security audit, asks for a code review with a focus on security, or mentions security concerns related to code. The security-agent plugin then provides structured security findings with severity ratings, code locations, impact assessments, and remediation guidance.

How it works

  1. Activating Security Agent: Claude invokes the security-agent plugin to analyze the provided code.
  2. Generating Security Report: The security-agent produces a structured report detailing identified vulnerabilities, their severity, affected code locations, and recommended remediation steps.

When to use it

  • Review code for security vulnerabilities.
  • Perform a security audit of a codebase.
  • Identify potential security risks in a software application.

Best practices

  • Context: Clearly state the security concerns you have regarding the code.
  • Iteration: Use the findings to address vulnerabilities and request further reviews.
