security-review

security-review is a skill for Claude Code from ramboz/jig. It costs 147 tokens per session (3,898 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-change security review that uses judgment and available scanning tools to look for likely vulnerabilities in a diff, branch changes, or pasted code. It gives a short summary and groups its findings by type.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a pull request, branch, or code snippet for security issues and decide whether it is ready to merge or needs fixes.
Why use it?
It helps catch common security problems before code is merged, while showing when a deeper review is needed.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is review, under [ADR-0013](../../docs/decisions/adr-0013-security-floor-policy.md)'s.

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 1 finding 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 315 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Spec 052 introduced this skill as jig's team baseline for security review, under ADR-0013's "jig provides the floor; bring your own depth" principle. Like /jig:pr-review (spec 012), /jig:arch-review (spec 014), and /jig:contracts (spec 022), it ships as SKILL.md only — no .py helper. It is fundamentally a judgment skill; the determinism it needs (detect a scanner on PATH, run it, read a diff) Claude runs inline. If any other skill is installed whose description identifies it as handling security review, SAST, or vulnerability analysis, the Claude Code skill router prefers that one over jig's baseline — the deferral is category-based, not name-specific, so a richer skill named anything (security-review, adobe-security-reviewer, sast-scan, vuln-audit, etc.) wins. Jig's slim version remains the auto-trigger when no such skill is installed.

What this skill does

Produces a breadth-over-depth heuristic security pass over a diff, a branch's changes, or a pasted snippet, in a four-bucket markdown envelope:

  1. Summary — a one-paragraph read of what changed and the overall security posture (clean / needs fixes before merge / needs a deeper look).
  2. Blockers — concrete must-fix security issues. Each cites a file:line and a one-sentence rationale.
  3. Nits — lower-urgency hardening suggestions. Same shape as blockers.
  4. Strengths — security-positive choices worth repeating (parameterized queries, secrets read from env, input validated at the boundary).

It works in two modes that compose:

  • Orchestrate-if-present. When a real scanner (semgrep, bandit, gosec, npm audit / osv-scanner) is on PATH, it runs the ones present and folds their output into the review. It installs nothing.
  • Defer-if-richer. When a richer security/SAST/vuln skill is installed, the router prefers it; jig's baseline yields.

When neither a scanner nor a richer skill is present, the heuristic baseline below is the floor — even a tooling-less user gets a real, structured pass. This is not a SAST engine and not a guarantee — see Honest framing.

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-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository ramboz/jig (6 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 147 tokens to every session and 3,898 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
