Automated safety checks
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 dawiddutoit/custom-claude at 17b45a90a6.
The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill
What it does
This skill performs security audits of Java codebases, identifying potential vulnerabilities and recommending best practices. It analyzes existing Java code to ensure adherence to secure coding standards and flags areas needing improvement. The audit focuses on common security pitfalls in Java applications.
When to use it
- Code Review: Before deploying a new Java application or feature.
- Security Assessment: As part of a broader security assessment process for an existing Java system.
- Refactoring Legacy Code: To improve the security posture of older, potentially vulnerable codebases.
- Training & Education: To help developers learn and apply secure coding practices in Java.
Key capabilities
- Security audit of Java code
- Identification of potential vulnerabilities
- Recommendations for best practices
- Adherence to secure coding standards
Example prompts
- "Please perform a security audit on this Java file: [file content]"
- "Analyze this Java code snippet and identify any potential security risks: [code snippet]"
- "Can you review this Java class for adherence to best practices regarding input validation?"
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires access to the Java codebase being audited. The quality of the audit depends on the clarity and completeness of the provided code.
