Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/levnikolaevich/claude-code-skills --skill ln-760-security-setup
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads ln-760-security-setup automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Paths: File paths (references/, ../ln-*) are relative to this skill directory.

Security Setup Coordinator

Type: L2 Domain Coordinator Category: 7XX Bootstrap

Purpose & Scope

  • Coordinate secret scanning (ln-761) and dependency vulnerability audit (ln-625)
  • Aggregate findings from both workers into unified report
  • Generate security infrastructure: SECURITY.md, pre-commit hooks, CI workflow
  • Provide overall security score and risk assessment

When to Use

  • During project bootstrap (invoked by ln-700-project-bootstrap)
  • Manual security audit request
  • CI/CD pipeline initialization

Workflow

Phase 1: Pre-flight Check

Step 1: Detect Project Type

  • Identify primary ecosystem(s): Node.js, .NET, Python, Go, etc.
  • Check for existing security configs (.gitleaks.toml, SECURITY.md)

Step 2: Check Tool Availability

  • Verify gitleaks/trufflehog available for secret scanning
  • Verify ecosystem-specific audit tools available
  • Log warnings for missing tools (do not fail)

Step 3: Load Existing Configs

  • If .gitleaks.toml exists: note for preservation
  • If SECURITY.md exists: note for update (not overwrite)
  • If .pre-commit-config.yaml exists: check for gitleaks hook

Phase 2: Delegate Scans

Step 1: Invoke ln-761 Secret Scanner

  • Delegate via Agent tool
  • Receive: findings list, severity summary, remediation guidance

Step 2: Invoke ln-625 Dependencies Auditor (mode=vulnerabilities_only)

  • Delegate via Agent tool (can run parallel with Step 1)
  • Pass parameter: mode=vulnerabilities_only
  • Receive: vulnerability list, CVSS scores, fix recommendations

Phase 3: Aggregate Reports

Step 1: Combine Findings

  • Merge findings from both workers
  • Group by severity (Critical first)
  • Calculate overall security score

Step 2: Risk Assessment

  • Critical findings: flag for immediate attention
  • High findings: recommend fix within 48h
  • Medium/Low: add to backlog

Step 3: Build Summary

  • Files scanned count
  • Secrets found (by severity)
  • Vulnerabilities found (by severity)
  • Overall pass/warn/fail status

Phase 4: Generate Outputs

Step 1: Create/Update SECURITY.md

  • Use template from references/templates/security_md_template.md
  • If exists: update, preserve custom sections
  • If new: generate with placeholders

Step 2: Configure Pre-commit Hooks

  • If .pre-commit-config.yaml missing: create from template
  • If exists without gitleaks: recommend adding
  • Template: references/templates/precommit_config_template.yaml

Step 3: Generate CI Workflow

  • If .github/workflows/security.yml missing: create from template
  • Template: references/templates/ci_workflow_template.yaml
  • Include ecosystem-specific audit jobs

Step 4: Update .gitignore

  • Ensure secret-related patterns present:
    • .env, .env.*, !.env.example
    • *.pem, *.key
  • Preserve existing entries

Worker Invocation (MANDATORY)

Host Skill Invocation: Skill(skill: "...", args: "...") is mandatory delegation.

  • Claude: call the Skill tool exactly as shown.
  • Codex: if no Skill tool exists, locate the named skill in available skills, read its SKILL.md, treat args as $ARGUMENTS, execute that skill workflow, then return here with its result/artifact.
  • Do not inline worker logic or mark the worker complete without executing the target skill.

CRITICAL: All delegations use Agent tool with subagent_type: "general-purpose" for context isolation.

WorkerParallelPurpose
ln-761-secret-scannerYesHardcoded secret detection
ln-625-dependency-reuse-auditorYesVulnerability scanning (mode=vulnerabilities_only)

Prompt template:

Agent(description: "Secret scanning via ln-761",
     prompt: "Execute security scanner.

Step 1: Invoke worker:
  Skill(skill: \"ln-761-secret-scanner\")

CONTEXT:
Project: {projectPath}",
     subagent_type: "general-purpose")

Agent(description: "Dependency vulnerability scan via ln-625",
     prompt: "Execute vulnerability scanner.

Step 1: Invoke worker:
  Skill(skill: \"ln-625-dependency-reuse-auditor\")

CONTEXT:
Project: {projectPath}
Mode: vulnerabilities_only (only CVE scan, skip outdated/unused checks)",
     subagent_type: "general-purpose")

Pattern: Both workers can execute in parallel via Agent tool, then aggregate results.

Anti-Patterns:

  • ❌ Direct Skill tool invocation without Agent wrapper
  • ❌ Any execution bypassing subagent context isolation
  • ❌ Calling ln-625 without mode parameter (would run full audit)

Definition of Done

  • Both workers (ln-761, ln-625) invoked and completed
  • Findings aggregated with severity classification
  • SECURITY.md created/updated
  • Pre-commit hook configured (or recommendation logged)
  • CI workflow generated (or recommendation logged)
  • .gitignore updated with secret patterns
  • Summary report returned to parent orchestrator

Meta-Analysis

Optional reference: load references/meta_analysis_protocol.md only when the user asks for post-run meta-analysis or protocol-formatted run reflection.

Skill type: planning-coordinator. When requested, run after all phases complete. Output to chat using the protocol format.

Critical Rules

  • Always pass mode=vulnerabilities_only to ln-625 — full audit mode is not appropriate for bootstrap context
  • Preserve existing configs — if .gitleaks.toml, SECURITY.md, or .pre-commit-config.yaml exist, update rather than overwrite
  • Use Agent tool with subagent_type: "general-purpose" for all worker delegations (context isolation)
  • Never fail on missing tools — log warnings for unavailable scanners, continue with available ones
  • Critical findings block completion — flag for immediate attention before returning to parent
