security-review

A focused, read-only security review for changes involving untrusted input, permissions, secrets, dangerous operations or agent and tool capabilities.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review changes involving command execution, file paths, archives, network destinations, authentication, tenant separation, logs, plugins, MCP tools or agent actions.
Why use it?
It traces concrete attacker paths across validation, authorization and side effects, so real exploit risks are separated from general code-quality concerns.

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 A, and why

security-review 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 2d 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

Security Review

Own concrete trust-boundary and exploit-path analysis, not generic changed-code review.

Workflow

  1. Confirm the diff or audit scope, assets, actors, trust boundaries, and relevant privileges.
  2. Trace each material untrusted source through parsing, validation, authorization, and dangerous sinks or persistent side effects.
  3. Check changed secret handling, command execution, paths and archives, network destinations, authentication, authorization, tenant isolation, logs, plugins, MCP tools, sandboxes, and agent capabilities only where they participate in a concrete path.
  4. Separate confirmed exploit paths from defense-in-depth observations and unresolved evidence gaps.
  5. Delegate dependency provenance to dependency-review, IaC blast radius to infra-review, platform lifecycle to its specialist, and operational recovery to rollout-readiness-review.

For each finding report severity, affected location and behavior, attacker prerequisites, exploit path, impact, smallest safe correction, verification, and uncertainty. State directly when no confirmed finding exists.

Keep the review read-only. Do not rotate credentials, modify live services, run unsafe payloads, add security frameworks, or broaden scope. Remediation requires separate implementation authority.

Finish when material trust paths in scope are traced and findings or confidence limits are explicit.

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-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository yarlson/yarstack (3 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 301 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
