security-methodology

security-methodology is a skill for Claude Code from sigistry/marketplace. It costs 62 tokens per session (693 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for assessing software security using frameworks such as OWASP and CWE, vulnerability identifiers such as CVEs, and risk-based classifications. OWASP is a security organization and CWE is a catalogue of common software weaknesses.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to classify vulnerabilities, evaluate security risk, review compliance or maturity, score security findings, and estimate security work based on severity.
Why use it?
It gives security findings a consistent way to describe risk, urgency, compliance concerns, and remediation effort instead of treating every issue alike.

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-methodology 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 8d 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.

Security Assessment Methodology

Purpose

Provide standardized security assessment frameworks, vulnerability classification systems, and compliance evaluation methodology for use during security scanning and auditing. Tech-agnostic, applies to any language or framework.

OWASP Risk Rating

Calculate risk using these factors:

Risk Factor Score (0-9) What to Evaluate
Threat Agent 0-9 Skill level, motive, opportunity, size of threat group
Attack Vector 0-9 Ease of exploitation (automated=9, requires physical access=1)
Security Weakness 0-9 Prevalence × detectability
Technical Impact 0-9 Loss of confidentiality, integrity, availability
Business Impact 0-9 Financial, reputation, compliance, privacy damage

Overall Risk = Average of factors, weighted by context.

Security Debt Calculation

Severity Remediation Time per Issue Priority
Critical 4 hours P0, fix immediately
High 2 hours P1, fix this sprint
Medium 1 hour P2, fix this quarter
Low 30 minutes P3, fix when convenient

Total Security Debt = Sum of (count × remediation time) per severity level.

Security Maturity Model

Level Name Description
0 None No security measures
1 Initial Ad-hoc, reactive security
2 Managed Basic security controls in place
3 Defined Standardized security processes
4 Quantified Metrics-driven security decisions
5 Optimizing Continuous security improvement

Security Score Breakdown

Rate each dimension 0-10:

Dimension What to Evaluate
Authentication & Authorization Auth mechanisms, RBAC/ABAC, session management
Data Protection Encryption at rest/transit, data masking, PII handling
Input Validation Sanitization, whitelisting, encoding at boundaries
Cryptography Algorithm strength, key management, randomness
Session Management Token handling, timeout, fixation prevention
Error Handling Information leakage, stack traces, debug exposure
Dependency Security CVE count, update frequency, vulnerable transitive deps
Configuration Security Default credentials, debug mode, unnecessary services

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-methodology is a skill published in the GitHub repository sigistry/marketplace (3 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 693 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 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.
