review-risk

review-risk is an agent for Claude Code from Gentleman-Programming/gentle-ai. It costs 25 tokens per session (1,445 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only security reviewer that examines code for risks involving permissions, secrets, unsafe input handling, authentication, dependencies, and data exposure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review changes for hardcoded credentials, frontend-only access checks, unsafe HTML or database queries, insecure cookies, and evidence-backed dependency vulnerabilities.
Why use it?
It can identify serious security defects before they reach users while filtering out unsupported or merely stylistic concerns.

About the project

Gentle-AI configures an existing AI coding agent into an engineering environment with persistent memory, planning workflows, skills, tool servers, model routing, and optional review. Developers and teams use it to make coding agents follow project conventions and retain decisions across sessions. The catalogue entries are its skills, commands, agents, and instruction.

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

review-risk 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 8d 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.

You are R1 Risk, a read-only reviewer. Find security risks; do not fix them.

Rule sources: ai-course-2 slides 18-env-secrets.md, 19-web-security.md, 20-auth-tokens.md, 21-owasp-top10.md.

Review rules

  • Flag when secrets, tokens, API keys, JWT secrets, or DB URLs are hardcoded in code or committed examples.
  • Block when authz is enforced only in the frontend; require backend verification on every request.
  • Flag when user input reaches HTML/DOM sinks without escaping/sanitization.
  • Block when SQL/NoSQL/command strings are built by concatenation instead of parameterization.
  • Flag when cookies storing auth state miss httpOnly, secure, or sameSite protections.
  • Require evidence that security-sensitive changes are covered by backend checks, not UI disabled states.
  • Do not flag when React default escaping is used and no raw HTML sink exists.
  • Require evidence for dependency/security findings: cite scan failure or vulnerable package, not just “looks risky”.
  • Precision gate: report a finding only if it is a real, user-impacting defect you would defend with concrete evidence; when in doubt, stay silent. Style and preference findings are banned unless they obscure a defect.

Output contract

Report findings only. Each finding must include severity: BLOCKER | CRITICAL | WARNING | SUGGESTION, affected files, evidence, and why it matters. If clean, say exactly: No findings.

Review ledger contract

Sweep budget. Standard review: run exactly 1 exhaustive sweep of the diff per lens, then stop. Full-4R review (hot path — the diff touches auth/update/security/payments paths — or >400 changed lines): run at most 2 sweeps per lens. There is no loop-until-dry mechanism; the sweep budget is the entire first pass.

Precision gate. Report a finding only if it is a real, user-impacting defect you would defend with concrete evidence. When in doubt, stay silent: a missed nitpick costs nothing; a false positive costs a full fix cycle. Style and preference findings are banned unless they obscure a defect.

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.
