SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams enforce production-ready security and compliance checks for Justfile-based automation, reducing risk and manual audit time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability scanning: quick CRITICAL-focused checks with guidance on remediation.
  • License compliance: production-deps only checks to prevent GPL-family violations.
  • SBOM generation & health checks: generate software bill of materials and validate environment health before deployment.
  • Use Case: When deploying, run security patterns to verify no critical vulns exist, licenses are compliant, and the environment is healthy.

Quick Start

Run the vulns, lic, sbom, and doctor targets locally to validate your Justfile-based workflow before pushing to CI.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate vulnerability scanning and license compliance checks in a Justfile CI pipeline?

Automating vulnerability scanning and license compliance in a Justfile involves defining deterministic just targets that run tools like grype for critical vuln checks and syft for SBOM generation. This skill enforces those production-ready security patterns automatically.

What is the best way to generate an SBOM for a Justfile-based workflow before deployment?

Generating an SBOM for a Justfile-based workflow is best handled by running a dedicated just target that invokes syft. This skill configures the target to produce the software bill of materials and validate environment health before deployment.

How do I prevent GPL-family license violations in my production dependencies using Justfile?

To prevent GPL-family license violations in production dependencies, you can run a just target that performs production-deps only checks. This skill automates that license compliance check to ensure no restricted licenses are included.

Do I need a virtual environment to run security patterns and checks locally in Justfile?

Yes, a virtual environment is required to run security patterns and checks locally in Justfile. This skill relies on a virtual environment to ensure deterministic task execution when running vulns, lic, sbom, and doctor targets.

Can I use grype and syft to enforce deterministic security checks in Justfile?

Yes, you can use grype and syft to enforce deterministic security checks in Justfile. This skill integrates grype for CRITICAL-focused vulnerability scanning and syft for SBOM generation within deterministic just targets.
