performing-security-code-review is a Claude Code skill that runs a security-focused code review to find vulnerabilities and recommend fixes.

About

This skill invokes a security-agent plugin to review code for vulnerabilities like SQL injection, XSS, authentication flaws, and insecure dependencies. A developer uses it when auditing a codebase or a specific query before shipping. It returns a structured report listing each finding with severity, the affected code, and recommended fixes.

  • Runs a security-focused code review via the security-agent plugin
  • Flags SQL injection, XSS, auth flaws, and insecure dependencies
  • Produces a structured report with severity, locations, and remediation

Security Agent

This skill provides automated assistance for security agent tasks.

Overview

This skill empowers Claude to act as a security expert, identifying and explaining potential vulnerabilities within code. It leverages the security-agent plugin to provide detailed security analysis, helping developers improve the security posture of their applications.

How It Works

1. Receiving Request: Claude identifies a user's request for a security review or audit of code. 2. Activating Security Agent: Claude invokes the security-agent plugin to analyze the provided code. 3. 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 This Skill

This skill activates when you need to:

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

Examples

Example 1: Identifying SQL Injection Vulnerability

User request: "Please review this database query code for SQL injection vulnerabilities."

The skill will: 1. Activate the security-agent plugin to analyze the database query code. 2. Generate a report identifying potential SQL injection vulnerabilities, including the vulnerable code snippet, its severity, and suggested remediation, such as using parameterized queries.

Example 2: Checking for Insecure Dependencies

User request: "Can you check this project's dependencies for known security vulnerabilities?"

The skill will: 1. Utilize the security-agent plugin to scan the project's dependencies against known vulnerability databases. 2. Produce a report listing any vulnerable dependencies, their Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) identifiers, and recommendations for updating to secure versions.

Best Practices

  • Specificity: Provide the exact code or project you want reviewed.
  • Context: Clearly state the security concerns you have regarding the code.
  • Iteration: Use the findings to address vulnerabilities and request further reviews.

Integration

This skill integrates with Claude's code understanding capabilities and leverages the security-agent plugin to provide specialized security analysis. It can be used in conjunction with other code analysis tools to provide a comprehensive assessment of code quality and security.

Prerequisites
