    linkerd-patterns

    Implement Linkerd service mesh patterns for lightweight, security-focused service mesh deployments. Use when setting up Linkerd, configuring traffic policies, or implementing zero-trust networking with minimal overhead.

    agent-sort

    Build an evidence-backed ECC install plan for a specific repo by sorting skills, commands, rules, hooks, and extras into DAILY vs LIBRARY buckets using parallel repo-aware review passes. Use when ECC should be trimmed to what a project actually needs instead of loading the full bundle.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 167 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Run against all modified files before commit:

    line 13
  2. Distinctive:

    CRITICAL: Must fix before commit (secrets exposure, SQL injection)

    line 66
  3. Distinctive:

    HIGH: Should fix before merge (missing auth, XSS)

    line 67

“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

Automated security review checklist for code changes. Covers OWASP Top 10, dependency vulnerabilities, secret exposure, and injection vectors.

Checklist

Run against all modified files before commit:

1. Input Validation

  • All user inputs validated and sanitized
  • SQL queries use parameterized statements (no string concatenation)
  • Shell commands use safe argument passing (no interpolation)
  • Path traversal prevented (no ../ in user paths)
  • File uploads validated (type, size, name)

2. Authentication & Authorization

  • Auth checks on all protected endpoints
  • Session tokens are cryptographically random
  • Password hashing uses bcrypt/argon2 (not MD5/SHA1)
  • API keys not hardcoded in source

3. Secrets Management

  • No secrets in source code (API keys, passwords, tokens)
  • .env files in .gitignore
  • Environment variables used for configuration
  • No secrets in log output or error messages

4. Dependency Security

  • Dependency audit passes
  • No known CVEs in dependencies
  • Lock files committed and up to date
  • Minimal dependency footprint

5. Error Handling

  • Error messages don't leak internal details
  • Stack traces not exposed to users
  • Graceful degradation on failure
  • Timeouts configured for external calls

6. Data Protection

  • Sensitive data encrypted at rest
  • HTTPS enforced for all external communication
  • PII handling follows minimum exposure principle
  • Logs don't contain sensitive user data

7. Injection Prevention

  • XSS: Output encoding applied
  • CSRF: Tokens used for state-changing operations
  • Command injection: Safe argument passing, no shell interpolation with user data
  • SSRF: External URL validation

8. Configuration

  • Debug mode disabled in production
  • CORS configured restrictively
  • Security headers set (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options)
  • Rate limiting on sensitive endpoints

Severity Levels

  • CRITICAL: Must fix before commit (secrets exposure, SQL injection)
  • HIGH: Should fix before merge (missing auth, XSS)
  • MEDIUM: Fix in same sprint (missing rate limiting, verbose errors)
  • LOW: Track and fix later (minor header issues)

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.
