security-scan

security-scan is a skill for Claude Code from hamzaPixl/pixl-ai. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,385 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An automated security scan for source code, dependencies, secrets, web-application vulnerabilities, and access-control checks. OWASP Top 10 is a widely used list of common web-security risks; CVEs are public records of known software vulnerabilities.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for checking secrets, OWASP risks, dependency CVEs, and role-based access control in JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python projects.
Why use it?
It helps find leaked keys, unsafe code patterns, vulnerable packages, and missing authorization checks before they become security incidents. The scan can cover the whole project or selected areas.

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-scan 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/scan-owasp.sh, scripts/scan-secrets.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 149 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup

Read config.json in this skill directory (if it exists):

  • scan_scope — default scope when none given; default "full"
  • severity_threshold — minimum severity to report; default "MEDIUM"
  • skip_modules — directories to exclude; default ["node_modules", ".next", "dist", "pycache"]

If invoked without arguments, use scan_scope as the default. Override with the argument if provided.

Security Scan

Automated security scanning across multiple dimensions.

Required References

Before starting, read references/standards/security-audit.md for OWASP patterns and severity classification.

Step 0: Parse Scope

Scope What it checks
secrets Hardcoded API keys, passwords, private keys
owasp OWASP Top 10 vulnerability patterns
deps Dependency CVEs via npm audit / pip audit
rbac Authorization checks on routes and endpoints
full All of the above

Default scope: full. Optional path restricts scanning to a subdirectory.

Step 1: Secrets Scan

Search for common secret patterns:

# API keys
grep -rn 'sk_live_\|sk_test_\|AKIA[A-Z0-9]\|ghp_\|gho_\|xox[bpas]-' --include='*.ts' --include='*.js' --include='*.py' --include='*.go' .

# Private keys
grep -rn 'BEGIN.*PRIVATE KEY' .

# Hardcoded passwords
grep -rn 'password\s*=\s*["\x27][^"\x27]*["\x27]' --include='*.ts' --include='*.js' --include='*.py' .

# .env files committed
git ls-files | grep -E '\.env($|\.local|\.prod|\.staging)'

Severity: CRITICAL for any finding.

Step 2: OWASP Top 10

Scan for common vulnerability patterns:

OWASP Pattern to grep
SQL Injection String concatenation in SQL queries
XSS dangerouslySetInnerHTML, unescaped template vars
SSRF User-controlled URLs in fetch/axios calls
Broken Auth Missing auth middleware on routes
Insecure CORS origin: '*' or credentials: true with wildcard
Path Traversal ../ in file operations with user input
Hardcoded JWT JWT secrets as string literals

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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-scan is a skill published in the GitHub repository hamzaPixl/pixl-ai (2 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 1,385 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-03.
