trivy

trivy is a command for Claude Code from nitinjain999/platform-skills. It costs 131 tokens per session (2,345 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A security scanner for container images, files, Git repositories, filesystems, and software bills of materials (SBOMs). It checks for known vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, and licence violations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan images, repositories, filesystems, or SBOMs locally and in CI, enforce severity limits, upload results, or monitor a cluster continuously.
Why use it?
It helps find security and licensing problems before software is shipped or while it is running in a Kubernetes cluster.

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

trivy 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 9d 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.

Mode dispatch

Parse the first word of $ARGUMENTS as the mode. When $ARGUMENTS is empty, run the three-layer interactive wizard.

Mode What it does
image Scan a container image for OS and library CVEs
fs Scan a local directory for CVEs, secrets, and license violations
repo Scan a remote git repo URL (same as fs but clones first)
secrets Scan current repo for hardcoded secrets only (--scanners secret)
sbom Scan an existing Syft-generated SBOM file (trivy sbom <file>)
k8s Live cluster image-CVE scanning via Trivy Operator (Flux HelmRelease)

Three-layer interactive wizard

Layer 1 — Developer question (intent in their language)

What are you trying to find out?
  1. "Is this image safe to ship?"              → image CVE scan
  2. "Are there secrets in this repo/code?"      → secret scan
  3. "What's the full risk of this checkout?"    → fs scan (vuln + secret + license)
  4. "What's running vulnerable in my cluster?"  → live cluster scan (Operator)
  5. "Is this SBOM vulnerable?"                  → SBOM scan (Syft output)

  IaC misconfig?              → /platform-skills:checkov
  Will this manifest pass admission? → /platform-skills:kyverno apply
  Image signing / SBOM generation?   → /platform-skills:supply-chain

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.
