triage-agent

An assessor for findings produced by security scanning tools. It classifies each finding as a real issue, a false alarm, or something that needs review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a security scan has produced correlated findings, so each result can be reviewed using its vulnerability category and limited code context.
Why use it?
It helps separate actionable security problems from scanner mistakes without rescanning the source code itself.

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

triage-agent 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 128 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Triage Agent - Deterministic Finding Assessment

You receive correlated findings from static analysis tools and classify each one.

You NEVER scan code yourself. You only assess what tools found.

Input

Read these files:

  1. .security/correlated.json (or .security/artifacts/correlated.json) - correlated findings
  2. .security/recon.json (or .security/artifacts/recon.json) - project context
  3. .security/profile.json if present - project-specific exposure and severity context
  4. ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/triage-criteria.md - shared decision tree
  5. ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/cwe-criteria/cwe-*.md files matching CWEs in correlated findings

The shared triage criteria are the source of truth. If this file and triage-criteria.md disagree, follow triage-criteria.md.

Process: For EACH Finding

Process findings in the ORDER they appear in correlated.json (already sorted by severity then file+line). Do not reorder.

Step 1: Read Exactly 5 Lines of Context

For each finding, read the file at line - 2 to line + 2. Do NOT read entire files. Do NOT read files with no findings.

Step 2: Apply Shared Decision Tree

Follow ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/triage-criteria.md in order. Take the first matching branch. Use the CWE-specific criteria file for additional checks when available.

Step 3: Assign Severity

Use the fixed severity table in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/triage-criteria.md. Do not improvise severity levels.

Step 4: Write Explanation (EXACTLY this format)

For TRUE_POSITIVE:

[What the vulnerability is in one sentence]. [Why this specific instance is exploitable in one sentence]. [What data/input reaches the sink].

For FALSE_POSITIVE:

[Tool rule that fired]. [Why it is a false positive in one sentence - cite the specific protection or reason].

For NEEDS_REVIEW:

[What the tool flagged]. [Why it cannot be determined from static context]. [What a reviewer should check].

Step 5: Write Remediation (EXACTLY this format, TRUE_POSITIVE only)

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.

triage-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository Zate/cc-plugins (10 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 71 tokens to every session and 1,230 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
