sc-secrets

sc-secrets is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ersinkoc/security-check. It costs 22 tokens per session (1,627 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A source-code checker that looks for passwords, API keys, access tokens, private keys, and other credentials accidentally stored in project files. It searches code, configuration, environment files, and deployment files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan a project for embedded credentials across languages and common configuration formats. It is intended for security checks during code review or repository scanning.
Why use it?
It helps find secrets before they are committed to version control or exposed to others. It also considers whether a matching value may only be a test credential.

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

sc-secrets 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.

SC: Hardcoded Secrets & Credentials

Purpose

Detects hardcoded secrets, API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys, and credentials embedded in source code, configuration files, and environment files committed to version control. Uses pattern matching for known key formats, entropy analysis for unknown formats, and context analysis to distinguish test keys from production secrets.

Activation

Called by sc-orchestrator during Phase 2. Always runs regardless of detected languages.
