# Salesforce security — SfSkills domain router

Platform security and compliance: org hardening, encryption, session policy, MFA, monitoring, incident response, and TROUBLESHOOTING a specific record-access denial. Designing the sharing model itself (OWD, role hierarchy, sharing rules) is salesforce-admin.

**49 skill packages** live under
`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/<slug>/SKILL.md`. They are not
loaded — reach them by path, on demand.

**Generated by `scripts/build_plugin.py`. Do not hand-edit.**

## How to find the right skill

Three mechanisms, listed in order of reliability on a fresh install.
Use the first one that is available; do not stop at a guess.

**1. The shipped roster (always works, no setup).**
Read `references/skill-index.md` next to this file. It lists every
`security` skill package with a one-line gloss, generated from
`registry/skills.json`. Scan it and pick by name.

**2. The MCP server (fast, needs the `sfskills-mcp` server connected).**
Call the `search_skill` tool with the user's phrasing and `domain: "security"`. It returns
ranked skill ids. `get_skill` then returns the package contents.

**3. The search CLI (fast, needs a locally built index).**

```bash
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/search_knowledge.py" "<the user's question>" --domain security --json
```

This needs `vector_index/`, which is **not shipped** — it is gitignored
and must be built once per clone:

```bash
cd "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}" && python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt && python3 scripts/build_index.py
```

If the command errors or reports `Coverage: NONE`, fall back to
mechanism 1 rather than telling the user the topic is uncovered.

**Then read the package.** Open the exact
`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/<domain>/<slug>/SKILL.md` the lookup
returned, plus its `references/gotchas.md` and
`references/llm-anti-patterns.md`. Do not answer from this router:
it is a map, not the territory.

## Featured entry points

Curated starting points when the request is broad or the lookup is
ambiguous. This is a shortlist, not the catalogue — the roster at
`references/skill-index.md` has all 49.

- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/org-hardening-and-baseline-config/SKILL.md` — the baseline every org should already meet
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/permission-set-groups-and-muting/SKILL.md` — composing access with groups, and muting the over-grant
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/record-access-troubleshooting/SKILL.md` — why this user can (or cannot) see this record
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/platform-encryption/SKILL.md` — Shield Platform Encryption and everything it breaks
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/mfa-enforcement-patterns/SKILL.md` — MFA rollout without locking out integration users
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/xss-and-injection-prevention/SKILL.md` — output encoding, SOQL injection, and unsafe HTML in components
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/secure-coding-review-checklist/SKILL.md` — the review gate for Apex, LWC and callouts
- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/security/event-monitoring/SKILL.md` — Event Monitoring, Shield log retention, and detecting misuse

## Decision trees

Read the tree *before* activating a skill when the request could be
solved more than one way, and cite the branch that decided it.

- `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/standards/decision-trees/sharing-selection.md` — OWD vs role hierarchy vs sharing rules vs manual vs Apex managed sharing

## Rules

1. Answer from the opened `security` package, never from this router.
2. Cite the skill id and, where one applied, the decision-tree branch.
3. Never claim a topic is uncovered without pasting lookup output.
4. Never deploy to an org.
