VerticalSlices: Skill for Claude Code

.ai/skills/review-security/SKILL.md

review-security is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cratis/VerticalSlices. It costs 45 tokens per session (537 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of review-security, MIT.

A checklist and process for reviewing changed code for security problems, including unsafe input handling, access-control errors, data leaks, and exposed secrets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit commands and endpoints, check tenant and user permissions, review database and file access, and verify that credentials and personal data are protected.
Why use it?
It helps catch vulnerabilities that ordinary code review or tests may miss, especially in projects using event sourcing, where application changes are recorded as events.

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

review-security 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 1mo 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 — 58 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Perform a structured security review of changed code.

Input Validation & Injection

  • All command properties validated before use (null, empty, range, format)
  • No raw SQL concatenation — parameterized queries or EF Core only
  • No user-supplied values passed to Path.Combine, File.*, shell commands, or process args
  • No user-supplied values used as event-store keys without sanitization

Authentication & Authorization

  • All HTTP endpoints decorated with [Authorize] or explicitly [AllowAnonymous] with justification
  • Tenant isolation enforced — no cross-tenant data accessible without authorization
  • Claims verified before acting on identity-dependent command data

Sensitive Data Exposure

  • No passwords, secrets, API keys, or tokens stored in event properties or read models
  • No PII returned to clients that did not provide it
  • Query results scoped to requesting tenant/user — never return all-tenant data

Secrets & Configuration

  • No secrets in source code, config files, or test fixtures
  • Secrets loaded from environment variables or a secrets manager
  • No hard-coded connection strings in non-test code

Event Sourcing Specifics

  • Events are immutable records — no mutable state in the event store
  • Aggregate/event-store IDs generated server-side, never accepted from untrusted clients
  • Event upcasting logic does not allow injection of unexpected properties
  • Uniqueness constraints cannot be bypassed by concurrent multi-tenant writes

Frontend

  • No user-supplied values in dangerouslySetInnerHTML
  • No tokens or secrets in localStorage — use httpOnly cookies or in-memory state
  • Command DTOs contain only the minimum required fields
  • No client-side access control not also enforced server-side

Risk classification

  • 🔴 Critical — must fix before merge
  • 🟡 Medium — should fix soon
  • 🟢 Low — fix when convenient

Output format

Start with: Security Review: ✅ No issues / ⚠️ Low-risk findings / ❌ Blocking issues found

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.
