security-scan

security-scan is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from New1Direction/korgex. It costs 34 tokens per session (475 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only security-checking workflow for code and dependencies. It looks for known vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, unsafe settings, and certain insecure code patterns.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after adding dependencies or changing authentication, secrets, file access, subprocesses, or network code, and to gate a CI pipeline on serious findings.
Why use it?
Security problems can remain hidden in new code or packages until they are exploited. A recorded scan provides specific findings that can be checked before work is declared complete.

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 2mo 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.

What it actually says

Verifiable security scan

When you've added or changed dependencies, written code that touches auth, secrets, subprocess calls, file I/O, or the network — or the user asks "is this secure?" — run a security scan before you finish.

How

Use the security_scan tool. It wraps the best scanner on the machine and is read-only (never modifies files):

  • trivy if installed — vulnerabilities, leaked secrets, IaC misconfig, licenses.
  • otherwise pip-audit (Python dependency CVEs) or bandit (insecure Python patterns).

Calls:

  • security_scan with no args scans the project root.
  • pass path to scan a subtree, or scanner to force trivy / pip-audit / bandit.

For the user (or in CI) the same scan is korgex scan [path] — it exits nonzero when a high/critical finding is present, so it gates a pipeline.

What you get

Each finding has kind (vuln | secret | misconfig | license), severity (critical → low), id (CVE / rule), target (file or pkg@version), and a fix when the scanner knows one. The scan is recorded to the verifiable ledger, so findings are tamper-evident and traceable: korgex why <CVE-or-file> walks a finding back to the prompt that introduced it, and korgex verify proves the report wasn't edited.

Acting on findings

  • Critical / high: fix before finishing — bump the dependency to its fix version, remove and rotate the leaked secret, correct the misconfig — then re-scan to confirm it's gone.
  • False positive: say so explicitly and explain why; don't silently drop it.
  • A surfaced secret is compromised. Never commit it; tell the user to rotate it.
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 New1Direction/korgex (5 stars, last pushed 24d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 475 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-31.
