Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned vchirrav/product-security-ai-skills at 21f59e138a.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill, iac-scan-kube-linter, performs static analysis of Kubernetes manifests and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) files. It identifies potential security vulnerabilities and policy violations within these configurations. The tool helps ensure that deployments adhere to best practices and organizational standards by scanning for common misconfigurations.

When to use it

  • Pre-deployment checks: Integrate into CI/CD pipelines to automatically scan manifests before deployment to Kubernetes clusters.
  • Security audits: Regularly audit existing IaC configurations to identify and remediate potential security risks.
  • Policy enforcement: Ensure that infrastructure deployments comply with defined security policies and governance rules.
  • New project setup: Scan initial manifest files when setting up new Kubernetes projects or applications.

Key capabilities

  • Static analysis of Kubernetes manifests (YAML/JSON).
  • Scanning of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) files.
  • Vulnerability identification within configurations.
  • Policy violation detection based on defined rulesets.

Example prompts

  • "Scan this Kubernetes manifest for security vulnerabilities: [paste manifest content]"
  • "Analyze this Terraform file and report any policy violations."
  • "Check this YAML file for common misconfigurations in a Kubernetes deployment."

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill requires access to the IaC or Kubernetes manifests being scanned. Ensure proper permissions are granted to the AI agent.
