Security Guidance

Security Guidance

Security review for generated code. Three layers:

1. Pattern warnings — instant regex-based reminders on Edit/Write for ~25 known-dangerous patterns (yaml.load, torch.load(weights_only=False), pickle.load on untrusted data, raw innerHTML, hardcoded secrets, etc.).
2. LLM diff review — sends the diff to a fast LLM call and feeds high-severity findings back to fix them before returning.
3. Agentic commit review — on git commit, an SDK-driven reviewer reads related files (Read/Grep/Glob) to trace data flow across the codebase, catching multi-file vulnerabilities.

Findings cover common web-vulnerability classes — injection, XSS, SSRF, hardcoded secrets, IDOR, auth bypass, unsafe deserialization, and path traversal among others.

Configuration

All configuration is via environment variables. None are required for default behavior.

SECURITY_REVIEW_MODEL controls the LLM diff review. SG_AGENTIC_MODEL controls the agentic commit reviewer.

Kill switches:

• SECURITY_GUIDANCE_DISABLE=1
• ENABLE_PATTERN_RULES=0
• ENABLE_CODE_SECURITY_REVIEW=0
• ENABLE_STOP_REVIEW=0
• ENABLE_COMMIT_REVIEW=0

Higher-recall mode: SG_DUAL_OR=on
