SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

ServiceNow scripting projects often suffer from security vulnerabilities, performance bottlenecks, and maintainability gaps across server, client, and UI scripts. This Skill provides a structured, repeatable code-review workflow to surface critical issues before deployment.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive security review of sys_script, sys_script_include, sys_ui_script, and related client scripts to detect injections, privilege issues, and data exposure risks.
  • Performance pattern detection to prevent unbounded queries, N+1 issues, and inefficient data access across the platform.
  • Best-practices guidance for scope usage, rule ordering, and correct API usage, enabling consistent, maintainable code quality.
  • Use Case: Before releasing a new ServiceNow implementation, run this review to surface vulnerabilities, performance risks, and maintainability improvements across all script types.

Quick Start

Run the automated code-review process against your ServiceNow scripts to surface security, performance, and best-practice issues.
