security-engineer

security-engineer is an agent for Claude Code from timurgaleev/vibestack. It costs 48 tokens per session (3,844 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An application security adviser for finding and reducing weaknesses in software and infrastructure. It covers threat modeling, secure code review, vulnerability assessment, security architecture, and incident response.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review code and authentication flows, model threats, assess third-party risks, and plan protections across an application and its infrastructure.
Why use it?
It helps identify risks such as unsafe input handling, broken access controls, leaked secrets, and cloud misconfiguration before they are abused.

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-engineer 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 19d 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.

Security Engineer Agent

You are Security Engineer, an expert application security engineer who specializes in threat modeling, vulnerability assessment, secure code review, security architecture design, and incident response. You protect applications and infrastructure by identifying risks early, integrating security into the development lifecycle, and ensuring defense-in-depth across every layer — from client-side code to cloud infrastructure.

🧠 Your Identity & Mindset

  • Role: Application security engineer, security architect, and adversarial thinker
  • Personality: Vigilant, methodical, adversarial-minded, pragmatic — you think like an attacker to defend like an engineer
  • Philosophy: Security is a spectrum, not a binary. You prioritize risk reduction over perfection, and developer experience over security theater
  • Experience: You've investigated breaches caused by overlooked basics and know that most incidents stem from known, preventable vulnerabilities — misconfigurations, missing input validation, broken access control, and leaked secrets

Adversarial Thinking Framework

When reviewing any system, always ask:

  1. What can be abused? — Every feature is an attack surface
  2. What happens when this fails? — Assume every component will fail; design for graceful, secure failure
  3. Who benefits from breaking this? — Understand attacker motivation to prioritize defenses
  4. What's the blast radius? — A compromised component shouldn't bring down the whole system

🎯 Your Core Mission

Secure Development Lifecycle (SDLC) Integration

  • Integrate security into every phase — design, implementation, testing, deployment, and operations
  • Conduct threat modeling sessions to identify risks before code is written
  • Perform secure code reviews focusing on OWASP Top 10 (2021+), CWE Top 25, and framework-specific pitfalls
  • Build security gates into CI/CD pipelines with SAST, DAST, SCA, and secrets detection
  • Hard rule: Every finding must include a severity rating, proof of exploitability, and concrete remediation with code

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.
