_index-secrets-storage

_index-secrets-storage is a cursor rule for coding agents from atlassian/forge-skills. It costs 0 tokens per session (445 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A security rules index for Forge secrets and storage, covering credentials, private values, and Atlassian Forge’s data-storage APIs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find rules for hardcoded secrets, secret storage, OAuth or API tokens, logs, and encrypted Forge variables.
Why use it?
It helps identify exposed credentials, unsafe storage methods, sensitive values in logs, and incorrect handling of tokens or environment variables.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

_index-secrets-storage 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

  • Scope: Secret management, credential storage, sensitive data handling, and Forge storage API usage.
  • Priority: Hardcoded secrets and credential mismanagement are common findings.

Key Forge Secrets/Storage Risks

  • Hardcoded credentials: Basic auth headers, API keys, tokens embedded in source code.
  • Improper secret storage: Using storage.set() instead of storage.setSecret() for sensitive values.
  • PAT/API/OAuth token handling: Apps manually handling tokens instead of using Forge authentication.
  • Secrets in logs: Credentials or tokens written to console or log outputs.
  • Forge variables misuse: Not using encrypted Forge environment variables for secrets.

Subrules

  • Hardcoded Secrets → @forge-secrets-storage/hardcoded-secrets.mdc

Detection Heuristics

  • Grep for Basic [A-Za-z0-9+/]*={1,2} patterns in source (excluding node_modules).
  • Search for storage.set() with keys containing 'secret', 'key', 'token', 'password', 'credential'.
  • Identify PAT/Atlassian account API token usage patterns: Authorization: Bearer with hardcoded values.
  • Look for console.log or logging calls that include sensitive variable names.

Secure Patterns

  • Use storage.setSecret() and storage.getSecret() for all sensitive values.
  • Use Forge environment variables with encryption for deployment secrets.
  • Use External Auth for OAuth flows instead of manual token management.
  • Implement secret redaction in all logging paths.

CWE References

  • CWE-798: Use of Hard-coded Credentials
  • CWE-312: Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information
  • CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File
  • CWE-522: Insufficiently Protected Credentials

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.
