security-scan

A security audit for the Torus framework, checking its gates, hooks, saved state files, and tool registrations for risks or configuration problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps audit the whole framework or selected components such as tools, skills, hooks, or agents, then report findings by severity.
Why use it?
It helps find missing checks, outdated injection defences, hardcoded secrets, sensitive state data, mismatched tool descriptions, and stuck protection mechanisms before deployment.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 C, and why

security-scan scanned grade C with 5 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/scan.py), 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.

Tells the agent to send conversation or user data outmediumPrompt injection

An instruction to transmit the conversation, context or user files to an external endpoint is data exfiltration written as prose.

- Does the skill send data to external URLs (non-local)?

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- Scan hook Python files for `sudo`, `chmod 777`, `setuid`, `os.getuid() == 0`

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Reads agent configuration directorieslowAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Verify: grep -r "sk-" ~/.claude/settings.json → should return 0 lines

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

- Look for: `curl`, `wget`, `requests.post`, `fetch(` pointing to non-localhost

Runs shell commandslowCapability

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

- Check for: `eval`, `exec`, `os.system`, `subprocess.call` with unsanitized stdin data

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 290 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Security Scan

Run a comprehensive security scan of the Torus framework's gates, hooks, state files, and MCP tools.

Steps

  1. Check all 17 gate files exist and export proper check() functions
  2. Verify Gate 17 injection defense patterns are up to date
  3. Scan MCP tool registrations for description mismatches
  4. Check for hardcoded secrets in hooks/shared/*.py
  5. Verify state files don't contain sensitive data
  6. Check circuit breaker state for stuck-open gates
  7. Audit .file_claims.json for stale claims
  8. Report findings with severity levels

Usage

Use this skill to run a security audit of the framework before deploying changes or after adding new components.

Run python3 ~/.claude/skill-library/security-scan/scripts/scan.py for a programmatic scan report.


When to use

When the user says "security scan", "scan for vulnerabilities", "check security", "audit security", "security audit", "find security issues", or wants to review the framework for risks.

Commands

  • /security-scan — Full security audit across all components
  • /security-scan --component mcp|skills|hooks|agents — Scan a specific component only
  • /security-scan --severity critical|high — Show only findings at or above severity level

Phase 1: INVENTORY — Catalog All Components

Read the following files to build the component inventory:

MCP Servers — from settings.json:

~/.claude/settings.json

Extract the mcpServers block. For each server record:

  • Name, command, args, env vars (flag any with secrets/tokens in env)
  • Transport type (stdio vs sse vs http)

Skills — glob all SKILL.md files:

~/.claude/skill-library/*/SKILL.md

For each skill record: name, trigger phrases, what commands it runs.

Hooks — from settings.json:

~/.claude/settings.json  →  hooks block

For each hook record: event type, matcher, command string.

Also read gate files:

~/.claude/hooks/gates/gate_*.py   (glob)

Agents — glob all agent definitions:

~/.claude/agents/*.md

For each agent record: name, tools list, any capability overrides.

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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 OZmasterAI/Torus-Framework (5 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 2,715 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 5 findings (tells the agent to send conversation or user data out, asks for root, reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
