Review Security (internal)
Composed by review-change / product-audit within their conversation — on any
agent, follow this file inline as the routed step. Findings only; never edits,
never refactors.
Scope
The diff or path/glob the caller passes; default the current change vs the default branch. State the scope at the top of the returned table.
Checklist (evaluate EVERY item — none is optional; n/a must be stated)
✓ No secrets/credentials/tokens in code, config, tests, or fixtures (grep the diff for key-like strings) ✓ Every external input on the changed paths is validated/sanitized before use ✓ No injection vectors (SQL/command/path/template) — parameterized/escaped, never concatenated ✓ AuthN/AuthZ enforced on every new/changed endpoint or entry point (cite where) ✓ No PII or secrets written to logs/error messages on the changed paths ✓ Webhooks/callbacks verify signatures before processing ✓ Rate limiting / abuse controls considered where a new public surface appears (n/a if none) ✓ New/updated dependencies pinned and free of known-critical advisories (state how you checked) ✓ Error responses don't leak stack traces or internal paths ✓ Unsafe deserialization / dynamic evaluation of untrusted data absent
Materiality bar
Report a row only when a competent user's outcome changes or a rule the project
explicitly declares is violated — cite the rule it violates beside the evidence.
Not findings: comment/punctuation typos, formatting-only drift, style preference
with no cited rule, hypothetical robustness beyond the SPEC's named scenarios.
An empty table with Decision: PASS is the expected result for a well-formed
change — never pad the table.

REVIEW SECURITY — scope: <scope>
| # | Finding | Sev | Evidence | Suggested fix |
|---|---------|-----|----------|---------------|
| 1 | <what> | critical|major|minor | <file:line> | <smallest action> |
Checklist: <n> evaluated, <n> pass, <n> findings, <n> n/a (<which + why>)
Summary: <1-2 sentences>
Decision: PASS | FAIL
FAIL if any critical or major finding is open; PASS otherwise. Minor findings never block — they route to the caller's triage step.
Done when
- Every checklist item was evaluated with evidence (file:line or command output) or explicitly marked n/a with the reason.
- The fixed-format block above is returned — nothing more, nothing less — and no code was changed.
