name	description	argument-hint	metadata
ck:security-scan	Scan codebase for security vulnerabilities, hardcoded secrets, dependency issues, and OWASP patterns. Use when asked to 'security scan', 'check for secrets', 'audit security', or before major releases.	[scope] [--secrets-only] [--deps-only] [--full]	author version claudekit 1.0.0

Security Scan

Lightweight security scanner using Claude's reasoning + shell tools. No external dependencies required.

Usage

/ck:security-scan              # Full scan of current project
/ck:security-scan --secrets-only   # Only secret/credential detection
/ck:security-scan --deps-only      # Only dependency audit
/ck:security-scan src/api/         # Scan specific directory

Scan Categories

Category	Method	Speed	Reference
Secrets	Grep regex patterns	Fast	references/secret-patterns.md
Dependencies	npm audit / pip audit	Medium	Built-in
Code patterns	Grep + Claude analysis	Medium	references/vulnerability-patterns.md

Workflow

1. Detect Project Type

- Check for package.json → Node.js
- Check for requirements.txt / pyproject.toml → Python
- Check for go.mod → Go
- Check for Cargo.toml → Rust

2. Secret Scanning (Always runs first)

Load references/secret-patterns.md for regex patterns.

Use Grep tool to search for each pattern category:

• API keys and tokens (AWS, GitHub, Stripe, etc.)
• Private keys and certificates
• Database connection strings with credentials
• Hardcoded passwords in code

Exclude: .env.example, test fixtures, documentation, node_modules/, dist/

For each match:

• Verify it's a real secret (not a placeholder like YOUR_API_KEY)
• Rate severity: CRITICAL (exposed prod key), HIGH (real credential), MEDIUM (possible credential)

3. Dependency Audit (If applicable)

Run the appropriate command:

# Node.js
npm audit --json 2>/dev/null || echo '{"error":"npm audit failed"}'

# Python (if pip-audit available)
pip audit --format json 2>/dev/null || echo '{"error":"pip audit unavailable"}'

Parse output, categorize by severity (critical/high/moderate/low).

4. Code Pattern Analysis

Load references/vulnerability-patterns.md for patterns.

Use Grep tool to search for dangerous patterns:

• SQL injection (string concatenation in queries)
• XSS (innerHTML, dangerouslySetInnerHTML without sanitization)
• Command injection (exec/spawn with unsanitized input)
• Path traversal (user input in file paths)
• Insecure randomness (Math.random for security)
• eval() / Function() with dynamic input

For each match:

• Read surrounding code context (5-10 lines)
• Use Claude reasoning to determine if it's a real vulnerability or false positive
• Rate severity and suggest fix

5. .env Exposure Check

# Check if .env files are tracked by git
git ls-files --error-unmatch .env .env.local .env.production 2>/dev/null
# Check .gitignore for .env patterns
grep -n "\.env" .gitignore 2>/dev/null

6. Generate Report

Output a markdown report directly in chat:

# Security Scan Report

**Project:** {name}
**Scanned:** {date}
**Files checked:** {count}

## Summary
| Category | Critical | High | Medium | Low |
|----------|----------|------|--------|-----|
| Secrets  | X | X | X | - |
| Deps     | X | X | X | X |
| Code     | X | X | X | - |

## Findings

### CRITICAL
1. **[SECRET]** Hardcoded AWS key in `src/config.js:42`
   - Pattern: `AKIA[0-9A-Z]{16}`
   - Fix: Move to environment variable

### HIGH
...

## Recommendations
1. ...

If --auto mode active in cook workflow: save report to {CK_REPORTS_PATH} or plans/reports/security-scan-{date}.md.

Scope Declaration

This skill handles: Secret detection, dependency auditing, common vulnerability patterns. This skill does NOT handle: Penetration testing, runtime security analysis, infrastructure security, compliance audits.

Security Policy

• NEVER output actual secret values in reports — redact to first 4 + last 2 chars
• NEVER execute secrets or credentials found during scanning
• NEVER modify code automatically — only report findings with fix suggestions
• If a real credential is found, recommend immediate rotation
