security-review is a skill for Claude Code from mnthe/hardworker-marketplace. It costs 43 tokens per session (2,968 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security-checking guide for reviewer agents. It covers common OWASP risks, exposed secrets, input validation, authentication, authorization, APIs, and other sensitive operations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing code involving user input, databases, accounts, APIs, uploads, payments, outside services, or confidential data.
Why use it?
It gives reviewers a checklist for finding security problems that ordinary functional tests may miss.

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-review scanned grade A with 2 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 12d 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.

Security Review

Security vulnerability detection and remediation guidance for ultrawork verification.

What This Skill Provides

Comprehensive security checklists covering:

  • OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
  • Secrets and credential exposure
  • Input validation and injection prevention
  • Authentication and authorization patterns
  • API security best practices

When to Use This Skill

ALWAYS review when code involves:

  • User input handling
  • Authentication or authorization
  • Database queries
  • API endpoints
  • File uploads
  • Payment/financial operations
  • External API integrations
  • Sensitive data (PII, credentials, tokens)

IMMEDIATELY review when:

  • Production incident occurred
  • Dependency has known CVE
  • User reports security concern
  • Before major releases

OWASP Top 10 Checklist

1. Injection (SQL, NoSQL, Command)

Checklist:

[ ] Queries use parameterization (no string concatenation)
[ ] ORMs used safely (no raw SQL strings)
[ ] User input is sanitized before queries
[ ] Command injection prevented (no shell execution with user input)
[ ] LDAP injection prevented
[ ] XPath injection prevented

Examples:

// ❌ CRITICAL: SQL injection vulnerability
const query = `SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${userId}`;
await db.query(query);

// ✅ CORRECT: Parameterized query
const { data } = await supabase
  .from('users')
  .select('*')
  .eq('id', userId);

// ❌ CRITICAL: Command injection
const { exec } = require('child_process');
exec(`ping ${userInput}`, callback);

// ✅ CORRECT: Use libraries instead
const dns = require('dns');
dns.lookup(userInput, callback);

2. Broken Authentication

Checklist:

[ ] Passwords are hashed (bcrypt, argon2, not MD5/SHA1)
[ ] JWT tokens properly validated
[ ] Sessions have timeouts
[ ] Multi-factor authentication available
[ ] Password reset tokens are single-use
[ ] Account lockout after failed attempts
[ ] Session fixation prevented
[ ] Credentials not in URLs or logs

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.
