Security Review Skill

Overview

Helps the agent perform systematic security evaluations using recognized threat analysis patterns (e.g., STRIDE), secure defaults, and threat mitigation recommendations.

When to use

  • Code, design, or interface evaluations
  • Threat modeling
  • Security hardening guidance
  • Detecting insecure dependencies or misconfigurations

Instructions

  1. Identify assets and trust boundaries.
  2. Enumerate threat categories (injection, elevation, exfiltration, misuse).
  3. For each threat, provide impact, likelihood, and proposed mitigations.
  4. Highlight secure defaults and configuration best practices.
  5. Call out specific code or design patterns with high risk.

Example

Input: “Evaluate the REST API design for authentication and session management.”
Output:

  • Identified risks
  • Threat analysis table
  • Best practice recommendations

Edge Cases

  • Legacy systems with limited security controls
  • Highly permissioned environments
