kendex: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/reviewer-security.md

reviewer-security is an agent for Claude Code from vanillagreencom/kendex. It costs 26 tokens per session (482 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A review-only agent for finding application-security problems in code. It checks areas such as authentication, input handling, access permissions, path restrictions, and exposed secrets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review authentication and authorization, injection risks, data exposure, XSS or CSRF, privilege escalation, API boundaries, and permission checks on publishing or writing operations.
Why use it?
It can reveal vulnerabilities and trust-boundary mistakes before they reach users, while keeping security review separate from code changes.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: effort in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter; names the AskUserQuestion tool.

This is vanillagreencom/kendex's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on kendex itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything kendex configures →

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 C, and why

reviewer-security scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 10d 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.

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

Security Review

Scope

Vulnerability classes (injection, broken auth/authz, data exposure, XSS/CSRF, privilege escalation), input validation at boundaries, API security. Plus:

  • Ownership gating: when the diff adds a surface that writes, stages, commits, or publishes content (files, configs, PRs, logs), verify it carries the same ownership/permission gate as its existing siblings, and enumerate every sibling surface in one finding.
  • Path containment: containment checks must canonicalize first. Lexical starts_with/prefix tests defeated by .. components or symlink targets are escapes.
  • Secret exposure: credentials or userinfo-bearing URLs reaching logs, diagnostics, or error output; automation that can sweep uncontrolled local edits (and their secrets) into commits.
  • Untrusted input in control position: attacker-controlled filenames/branches/settings echoed into shells, workflow commands, or evaluated config; code or config loaded from a reviewed-but-untrusted tree.

Discipline

Application security and trust boundaries (memory/thread safety belongs to reviewer-safety; general correctness to reviewer-correctness unless security impact is central). Project security policies outrank generic standards; include a CWE reference when applicable.

A finding in a class .agents/skills/reviewer/references/finding-disposition.md Step 0 excludes is declined before its truth is examined. Do not write it. For a symlink, .., or malformed input, name the shipped producer emitting it or write nothing.

Output

Vulnerabilities, gating gaps, containment escapes, secret exposure → blockers[]. Hardening → suggestions[].

Additional Instructions

Problems with a kendex-owned skill go through kendex report; check ownership in the file first.

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.
