SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps you catch security risk early by running an infrastructure-first audit that focuses on real-world failure modes like secrets exposure, dependency and CI/CD weaknesses, and LLM/AI specific attack surfaces.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Secrets archaeology: identifies exposed credentials and sensitive artifacts in the codebase and workflow surfaces so you can stop leaks before they ship.
  • Dependency supply chain security: evaluates vulnerable and risky dependencies and common transitive-pattern pitfalls that attackers exploit through upgrades.
  • CI/CD pipeline and infrastructure security: reviews how your build and deployment process can be abused through misconfigurations, over-privileged steps, and unsafe automation.
  • LLM/AI security and skill supply chain scanning: checks prompt injection, RAG poisoning, tool-calling permissions, and the security posture of installed skills.
  • Threat modeling plus active verification: applies OWASP Top 10 and STRIDE-style analysis and then verifies key findings to reduce false positives.

Quick Start

Use the cso skill to run a daily security audit and prioritize high-confidence findings by asking it: "Run a security audit for this repo using Chief Security Officer mode, aiming for daily zero-noise reporting."

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a security audit on my repository?

Run a security audit by executing an infrastructure-first scan across source code, dependencies, CI/CD pipelines, and LLM attack surfaces to identify vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, and supply chain risks.

What is secrets archaeology in source code?

Secrets archaeology is the process of identifying exposed credentials and sensitive artifacts hidden within codebases and CI/CD workflow surfaces to prevent accidental leaks before deployment.

How do I secure my CI/CD pipeline against misconfigurations?

Secure your CI/CD pipeline by reviewing build and deployment processes for misconfigurations, over-privileged steps, and unsafe automation that attackers could abuse to compromise infrastructure.

Can I detect LLM prompt injection and RAG poisoning vulnerabilities?

Yes, LLM security checks scan for prompt injection, RAG poisoning, and excessive tool-calling permissions to evaluate the security posture of AI applications and installed skills.

What is the best way to reduce false positives in vulnerability scanning?

Reduce false positives by applying confidence-gated reporting modes, OWASP Top 10 and STRIDE-style threat modeling, and actively verifying high-confidence issues across audit runs.

Does dependency supply chain security check transitive vulnerabilities?

Yes, dependency supply chain security evaluates vulnerable dependencies and common transitive-pattern pitfalls that attackers exploit during package upgrades to compromise your project.
