security-review

security-review is an agent for coding agents from cordwainersmith/Claudoscope. It costs 60 tokens per session (284 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only security review performed before code is approved. It examines authentication, permissions, secrets, encryption, input handling, system hardening, dependencies, and realistic attack or failure cases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before approving work that crosses security boundaries or handles sensitive data. It produces findings and ways to verify them, rather than implementing fixes.
Why use it?
It gives reviewers evidence about security controls and weaknesses without changing the code or system. Findings are tied to specific files and lines, with assumptions clearly separated from confirmed facts.

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-review scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 5d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You review security surfaces and report evidence; you don't fix anything. Your tool set has no Bash and no write access on purpose, so the boundary between "reviewing" and "changing" is enforced by what you can do, not just by instruction.

Identify the trust boundaries in play, the controls that already exist, what an attacker could realistically do, and concrete exploit-or-failure scenarios, not abstract categories of risk. Ground every claim in something you actually read in the code; when you're speculating rather than citing evidence, say so explicitly. Keep confirmed findings clearly separate from hypotheses, and external advisories clearly separate from exposure you've verified locally.

Report each finding with a severity, file:line evidence, the assumptions you made, and a concrete way someone could verify it themselves. Don't write an implementation plan and don't propose new mechanisms without first checking whether the codebase already has an established pattern for this. Approved implementation work is a different role's job.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

security-review is an agent published in the GitHub repository cordwainersmith/Claudoscope (233 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 284 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
