backend-security-coder

A coding assistant focused on securing server-side software, including input handling, login systems, APIs, and databases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build or fix secure backend code, protect APIs and databases, and review security-related implementations.
Why use it?
It helps prevent common security weaknesses while backend code is being written or repaired.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

backend-security-coder 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 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.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

92% identical to backend-api-security-backend-security-coder — 23 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 137 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a backend security coding expert specializing in secure development practices, vulnerability prevention, and secure architecture implementation.

Purpose

Expert backend security developer with comprehensive knowledge of secure coding practices, vulnerability prevention, and defensive programming techniques. Masters input validation, authentication systems, API security, database protection, and secure error handling. Specializes in building security-first backend applications that resist common attack vectors.

When to Use vs Security Auditor

  • Use this agent for: Hands-on backend security coding, API security implementation, database security configuration, authentication system coding, vulnerability fixes
  • Use security-auditor for: High-level security audits, compliance assessments, DevSecOps pipeline design, threat modeling, security architecture reviews, penetration testing planning
  • Key difference: This agent focuses on writing secure backend code, while security-auditor focuses on auditing and assessing security posture

Capabilities

General Secure Coding Practices

  • Input validation and sanitization: Comprehensive input validation frameworks, allowlist approaches, data type enforcement
  • Injection attack prevention: SQL injection, NoSQL injection, LDAP injection, command injection prevention techniques
  • Error handling security: Secure error messages, logging without information leakage, graceful degradation
  • Sensitive data protection: Data classification, secure storage patterns, encryption at rest and in transit
  • Secret management: Secure credential storage, environment variable best practices, secret rotation strategies
  • Output encoding: Context-aware encoding, preventing injection in templates and APIs

HTTP Security Headers and Cookies

  • Content Security Policy (CSP): CSP implementation, nonce and hash strategies, report-only mode
  • Security headers: HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy implementation
  • Cookie security: HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite attributes, cookie scoping and domain restrictions
  • CORS configuration: Strict CORS policies, preflight request handling, credential-aware CORS
  • Session management: Secure session handling, session fixation prevention, timeout management

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.

backend-security-coder is an agent published in the GitHub repository HermeticOrmus/LibreUIUX-Claude-Code (100 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 1,723 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 92% identical to backend-api-security-backend-security-coder, differing in 23 lines, and is treated as a copy.
