auto-co-meta: Skill for Claude Code

Code Review Security

When to Use

Activate this skill when:

• Reviewing pull requests for security vulnerabilities
• Auditing authentication or authorization code changes
• Reviewing code that handles user input, file uploads, or external data
• Checking for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities in new features
• Validating that secrets are not committed to the repository
• Scanning dependencies for known vulnerabilities
• Reviewing API endpoints that expose sensitive data

Output: Write findings to security-review.md with severity, file:line, description, and recommendations.

Do NOT use this skill for:

• Deployment infrastructure security (use docker-best-practices)
• Incident response procedures (use incident-response)
• General code quality review without security focus (use pre-merge-checklist)
• Writing implementation code (use python-backend-expert or react-frontend-expert)

Instructions

OWASP Top 10 Checklist

Review every PR against the OWASP Top 10 (2021 edition). Each category below includes specific checks for Python/FastAPI and React codebases.

A01: Broken Access Control

What to look for:

• Missing authorization checks on endpoints
• Direct object reference without ownership verification
• Endpoints that expose data without role-based filtering
• Missing Depends() for auth on new routes

Python/FastAPI checks:

# BAD: No authorization check -- any authenticated user can access any user
@router.get("/users/{user_id}")
async def get_user(user_id: int, db: Session = Depends(get_db)):
    return await user_repo.get(user_id)

# GOOD: Verify the requesting user owns the resource or is admin
@router.get("/users/{user_id}")
async def get_user(
    user_id: int,
    current_user: User = Depends(get_current_user),
    db: Session = Depends(get_db),
):
    if current_user.id != user_id and current_user.role != "admin":
        raise HTTPException(status_code=403, detail="Forbidden")
    return await user_repo.get(user_id)
