Security
Comprehensive security audits detecting vulnerabilities and verifying fixes
What You Can Do
Run comprehensive security audits on sensitive code before deployment. Claude scans for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities including injection attacks, broken authentication, data exposure, and misconfigurations, then verifies that fixes are properly implemented. You get detailed reports with severity levels, exact locations, and remediation guidance.
Features
identifies SQL injection, command injection, XSS, and LDAP injection vulnerabilities
catches broken authentication, session issues, privilege escalation, and insecure access patterns
detects hardcoded secrets, missing encryption, insecure cryptography, and sensitive data exposure
flags default credentials, verbose error messages, missing security headers, and configuration weaknesses
identifies known vulnerable packages, outdated libraries, and supply chain risks
categorizes findings as CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW with exact file and line references
confirms that identified vulnerabilities are properly remediated before deployment
provides actionable steps to fix each vulnerability, not just identification
Example Output
Input: Review authentication code for security vulnerabilities
Output:
SECURITY AUDIT REPORT
[CRITICAL] Hardcoded Database Credentials (auth.js:15)
- Issue: Database password stored in plaintext
- Remediation: Move to environment variables
[HIGH] Missing CSRF Protection (login.js:42)
- Issue: Form submission not validated with CSRF tokens
- Remediation: Implement token validation middleware
[MEDIUM] Weak Password Hashing (user.js:8)
- Issue: Using md5 instead of bcrypt
- Remediation: Replace with bcrypt with 12+ salt rounds
VERIFICATION REPORT
✓ Credentials moved to .env
✓ CSRF middleware implemented
✓ Password hashing upgraded to bcrypt

This skill enables you to automatically audit your websites against compliance standards and detect deviations from expected baselines. You can track regulatory requirements, identify policy violations, and generate compliance reports with actionable remediation steps. Monitor multiple sites simultaneously and maintain detailed audit trails for compliance documentation.
Analyze chemical processes systematically to identify hazards, assess risks, and generate safety recommendations. You can perform HAZOP analyses, evaluate compliance with industry standards, conduct root-cause analysis of incidents, and develop emergency response procedures. The skill guides you through structured safety reviews that reduce the likelihood of accidents and regulatory violations.
You'll develop systematic approaches to injectable formulation design, from API selection through sterilization strategy. Claude helps you troubleshoot failed batches by analyzing root causes, recommends regulatory pathways (505(b)(2), ANDA, NDA), and provides science-backed solutions for stability, compatibility, and manufacturability challenges.
This skill helps you systematically assess integration needs across your systems, design architecture patterns that scale with your organization, and identify technical and operational risks before implementation. You'll receive architecture recommendations aligned to your business constraints, clear integration roadmaps, and risk mitigation strategies that reduce deployment surprises. Get structured decision records suitable for architecture review boards and engineering teams.
You can conduct comprehensive hazard analyses for chemical processes using industry-standard methodologies like HAZOP and LOPA. The skill helps you assess risks quantitatively, identify control gaps, design engineered safeguards, and generate formal documentation for regulatory compliance and process safety management.
Claude analyzes your code diffs and generates standardized commit messages that follow the Conventional Commits specification. The skill automatically determines the correct commit type, scope, and description based on the changes you've made, ensuring your messages are parseable by automation tools while remaining human-readable for code reviewers.
You can transform raw text into structured, labeled datasets for machine learning, analysis, and research. This skill performs named entity recognition, sentiment classification, part-of-speech tagging, and dependency parsing—generating consistent, validated annotations at scale. Use it to prepare corpora, extract entities, classify documents, or perform linguistic analysis without manual annotation.
Rapidly analyze firmware logs and diagnose hardware issues that cause device failures, connectivity problems, and performance degradation. You'll identify root causes from stack traces, crash dumps, and sensor data, then generate specific optimization recommendations. This skill transforms raw device logs into actionable debugging plans that reduce time-to-resolution from hours to minutes.
