The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

7 rules. 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 167 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 5

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • could be automatic: a setting could enforce it
  1. Distinctive:

  2. Distinctive:

    Check input validation and injection risks.

  3. Very specific:

  4. Very specific:

    Live Agentic Security (M39, opt-in): when Captain provides a Cursor /review-security export, ingest via northstar review …

    line 31
  5. Distinctive:

    Do not hard-code secrets "for convenience."

    line 43
  6. Distinctive:

    Do not commit .env files or private keys.

    line 44
  7. Distinctive:

    Do not dismiss high-severity findings without Captain approval.

    line 45

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 167 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Security Review

Use this Skill when

Reviewing any change that touches authentication, authorization, input handling, secrets, networking, file operations, dependencies, or cloud permissions.

Inputs

  • Diff / changed files
  • Approved plan security section
  • Environment and secret handling conventions

Procedure

  1. Check authentication and authorization boundaries.
  2. Check input validation and injection risks.
  3. Scan for committed secrets, keys, and credentials.
  4. Review dependency and supply-chain risk for new packages.
  5. Review unsafe file, deserialization, and network patterns.
  6. Review container/cloud permission changes when present.
  7. Fail-closed control plane (M37): when .cursor/hooks/** or hooks.json change, check for agentic-equivalent gaps — plan-approval self-serve, protected-branch checkout short-circuits, missing push refspec / git -C handling (see docs/integrations/code-reviewer.md).
  8. Live Agentic Security (M39, opt-in): when Captain provides a Cursor /review-security export, ingest via northstar review ingest-agentic-security (allowlist-gated); do not treat live Cloud review as the hermetic CI default.
  9. Record findings with severity and remediation.

Output

Security review report under .agent/evidence/security/ when possible.

Prohibited actions

  • Do not hard-code secrets "for convenience."
  • Do not commit .env files or private keys.
  • Do not dismiss high-severity findings without Captain approval.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
