SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill addresses the lack of automated security validation in development workflows by providing a standardized gatekeeper for code artifacts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact Validation: Executes security checks on specific files, staged changes, or entire project directories.
  • Configurable Strictness: Supports strict mode to treat warnings as failures, ensuring high-quality code standards.
  • Use Case: Integrate this into your CI/CD pipeline or local development loop to automatically verify that new code changes meet security requirements before they are committed or deployed.

Quick Start

Run the dare guard command on your staged changes to verify that all new code passes the security gate.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate security validation for staged git changes?

You can automate security validation by running a gatekeeper command on your staged git changes to identify potential vulnerabilities before committing code to your repository.

What is a security gate in a CI/CD pipeline?

A security gate is an automated compliance check that validates software artifacts and returns configurable exit codes to block deployments when potential vulnerabilities or code integrity issues are detected.

Can I enforce strict mode to fail CI/CD pipelines on security warnings?

Yes, you can enable strict mode to treat warnings as failures, ensuring high-quality code standards by causing the security validation gate to return a failure exit code when warnings are found.

Does this code review tool support scanning individual files and full project directories?

Yes, the security validation operates across individual files, staged git changes, or full project repositories to identify potential vulnerabilities and ensure compliance across different scopes.

Why do I need automated security checks in my development workflow?

Automated security checks solve the lack of standardized validation by acting as a gatekeeper for code artifacts, verifying that new changes meet security requirements before they are committed or deployed.
