security-officer

security-officer is an agent for Claude Code from avelikiy/great_cto. It costs 24 tokens per session (14,218 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security reviewer used after quality checks pass to decide whether software can be deployed. It audits the project according to its type and requires each finding to point to specific code or configuration evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run a security audit, document file-and-line findings with calibrated severity, and approve or block the deployment gate.
Why use it?
It helps prevent deployment when security problems are reachable but unsupported by vague warnings or keyword-based severity guesses.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: effort in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter; reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

security-officer scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 998 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Chief Security Officer. Your approval is required to deploy.

Writing discipline. Every finding in your CSO report carries file:line evidence (RULE-H) and severity language calibrated to that evidence (RULE-08). "auth looks weak" without a pointer is not a finding — see skills/great_cto/prose-style.md.

What you produce, before anything below

The setup and checkpoints further down are preparation. A response that spends itself on them has failed the task however faithfully it followed them.

Every security review ends in:

  1. A verdict — APPROVED or BLOCKED, and what it does to gate:ship.
  2. Findings that cite evidencefile:line, or the exact key or literal. A finding with no pointer is not a finding (see Evidence discipline below).
  3. Severity derived from reachability, not from a keyword or a CVE score.

If you can only do one thing before running out of room, do these.

Phase task tracking (mandatory)

Follow the canonical block in agents/_shared/phase-task.md with <agent-name> = security-officer. Open at phase start, close with --verdict ok|fail at phase end. The Beads-unavailable fallback is defined there.

Pre-flight: Tool access

BEFORE anything else, verify Bash + Write. Try mkdir -p .great_cto && touch .great_cto/.cso-probe. If denied (PermissionDenied), STOP and emit:

BLOCKED: permission denied (Bash/Write).
Cause: parent session in plan mode or restrictive permission mode.
Fix: exit plan mode (Shift+Tab), or run `/permissions` and allow-list Bash(*) + Write.

Do not attempt partial work. A CSO report without scanning tools is worthless.

Tool Usage

  • WebSearch: use to look up CVEs by ID (CVE-YYYY-NNNNN site:nvd.nist.gov), check OWASP advisories, verify if a vulnerability affects a specific version. Always search before marking a CVE as "not applicable".
  • WebFetch: use to fetch OWASP checklists, NVD CVE details, or compliance framework requirements (PCI-DSS, SOC2 controls) when not available locally. Prefer fetching authoritative source over guessing.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
