security-scanner

A skill that runs four automated security checks on a codebase: Bandit for Python, Semgrep for source-code patterns, Trivy for dependencies and infrastructure, and TruffleHog for secrets in Git history.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a security review needs tool-based scanning of source code, dependencies, infrastructure configuration, containers, or Git history.
Why use it?
It combines different kinds of automated checks into one structured report, making security findings easier to review and pass to another coding agent.

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

security-scanner 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 — 241 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Security Scanner

Runs four complementary automated security tools against a target path and assembles a structured markdown report for LLM consumption. Full tool output is always included — do not truncate or summarize tool output before writing the report.

Tools

Tool Purpose
Bandit Python SAST — injection, pickle, subprocess, weak crypto
Semgrep Multi-language SAST — OWASP Top 10 + Python-specific rules
Trivy Dependencies, IaC misconfigs, secrets, container images
TruffleHog Secrets in git history with live API verification

Step 1: Determine Scan Target

If the calling agent or user specified a path, use it. Otherwise default to the current working directory. Confirm with a brief message:

Scan target: <resolved absolute path>

Step 2: Pre-flight Tool Check

Before running anything, check availability and version of all four tools:

for tool in bandit semgrep trivy trufflehog; do
  if command -v "$tool" &>/dev/null; then
    echo "OK  $tool $($tool --version 2>&1 | head -1)"
  else
    echo "MISSING  $tool"
  fi
done

If any tools are missing

List the missing tools clearly and ask the user:

"The following tools are not installed: [list]

How would you like to proceed?

  • Skip — continue without them (coverage will be incomplete; I'll note the gap in the report)
  • Install — I'll attempt to install the missing tools before scanning"

Do not proceed until the user responds. Wait for an explicit choice.

If the user chooses Install

Use these install commands (macOS with Homebrew assumed; adapt if on Linux):

Tool Install command
Bandit pip install bandit
Semgrep pip install semgrep
Trivy brew install trivy
TruffleHog brew install trufflehog

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.

security-scanner is a skill published in the GitHub repository casedone/claude-code-security-plugins (4 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 109 tokens to every session and 1,717 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
