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 crtvrffnrt/skills at 8323fa090f.

    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 performs a review of authentication and authorization mechanisms within a system, identifying potential vulnerabilities. It assesses user access controls, password policies, and session management to pinpoint weaknesses that could be exploited by attackers. The goal is to improve the overall security posture by highlighting areas needing remediation.

When to use it

  • Pre-deployment Security Checks: Before releasing new software or features, assess authentication and authorization configurations for vulnerabilities.
  • Post-Incident Analysis: Following a security breach related to access control, review existing mechanisms to identify root causes and prevent recurrence.
  • Compliance Audits: Prepare for audits by verifying adherence to industry standards regarding user authentication and authorization practices.
  • Periodic Security Reviews: Regularly evaluate the effectiveness of current security measures as systems evolve and new threats emerge.

Key capabilities

  • Authentication mechanism review
  • Authorization policy assessment
  • Session management analysis
  • Password policy evaluation
  • Access control validation

Example prompts

  • "Review the authentication flow for our user login page."
  • "Analyze the authorization policies governing access to sensitive data in our application."
  • "Evaluate the session timeout settings and identify potential risks."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a detailed understanding of the system's architecture and configuration. Providing clear documentation or access to relevant code is crucial for accurate assessment.
