The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Security Audit Skill

Security audit patterns (OWASP Top 10, LLM Top 10 2025, CWE Top 25 2025, CVSS v4.0), cloud/IaC, GitHub security. 80+ PHP/TYPO3 checkpoints (v14.3 LTS in typo3-security.md).

Security Checklist

  • semgrep/opengrep, trivy fs --severity HIGH,CRITICAL, gitleaks clean
  • bcrypt/Argon2 passwords, CSRF on state changes, TLS 1.2+
  • Server-side input validation; parameterized SQL; XML entities off
  • Output encoding + CSP; no unserialize() on user input
  • API keys encrypted; exception messages sanitized
  • Secrets out of VCS; audit logging on
  • Uploads validated, renamed, outside web root
  • Headers HSTS + X-Content-Type-Options; dependencies scanned

GitHub Actions Security

  • NEVER interpolate ${{ inputs.* }} / ${{ github.event.* }} in run: — use env:
  • Dependency triage: upgrade > override > dismiss. Full patterns: references/gha-security.md.

Verification

./scripts/security-audit-dispatcher.sh /path/to/project  # auto-detect stack
./scripts/security-audit.sh /path/to/project             # PHP-only
./scripts/github-security-audit.sh owner/repo            # GH repo

Dispatcher detects the stack from indicator files and runs matching scripts/scanners/*.sh (13 ecosystems; see references/ index).

competitors

coreyhaines31/marketingskills

When the user wants to create competitor comparison or alternative pages for SEO and buyer-facing use. Also use when the user mentions 'alternative page,' 'vs page,' 'competitor comparison,' 'comparison page,' '[Product] vs [Product],' '[Product] alternative,' 'competitive landing pages,' 'how do we compare to X,' 'competitor teardown,' 'audit our competitor pages,' 'are our comparison pages out of date,' or 'competitive asset audit.' Use this for any content that positions your product against competitors. Covers four formats: singular alternative, plural alternatives, you vs competitor, and competitor vs competitor. For auditing existing claims (not researching competitors from scratch, which is competitor-profiling; not technical SEO on these pages, which is seo-audit), use the asset audit here. For internal battle cards and sales-specific competitor docs, see sales-enablement.
