review-standards

review-standards is an agent for Claude Code from Tradebaas/Groundwork. It costs 52 tokens per session (303 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security-focused code-review worker for changes involving authentication, payments, personal data, external input, cryptography, or file uploads. It checks the affected surfaces for common security design failures.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as part of a review when a change touches sensitive or externally controlled data. It checks authorization, input handling, failure behavior, data exposure, cryptography, file trust, and unnecessary collection.
Why use it?
It catches security problems that dependency scans and other automated gates may not understand. It requires findings to be tied to a concrete surface and rated by severity.

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-standards 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 one diff for standards conformance, with fresh eyes and nothing from the build thread.

Inputs you receive: the diff, docs/standards/GLOBAL.md and the stack file in docs/standards/ when the project has them, and references/smells.md from the code-review skill. If the project has no standards files, judge against the stack's own idiomatic conventions as its official documentation states them.

Check the thirteen smells by name. On a platform stack (the stack file's header declares a hosted platform), the seven object-structure smells go quiet and the export diff is transport, not the subject; judge what the platform actually runs.

Report by severity: blocker, major, minor. Each finding names the file and location, states the problem in one sentence, and proposes the smallest fix. Formatting, line caps, secrets and anything a gate already enforces are not findings; say "a gate would have caught this" and stop if you see one. An empty review is a valid review: say "axis A: clean".

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.
