A general-purpose Static Application Security Testing (SAST) skill for LLM-based code vulnerability analysis. Designed to be loaded by AI coding agents (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, etc.) to perform structured source-to-sink taint analysis across 34 vulnerability classes.
This skill gives an LLM agent a structured, evidence-based workflow for finding security vulnerabilities in source code:
- Load relevant vulnerability reference files for the target codebase
- Map sources — identify all entry points where attacker-controlled data enters
- Trace taint — follow data flow through transformations to potential sinks
- Verify findings — apply a Judge step to eliminate false positives
- Report — produce actionable findings with file path, line number, and remediation
Supports Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, PHP, .NET with language-specific detection rules.

The main entry point. Defines the detection workflow, taint propagation rules, and Judge verification protocol.
- Precompute call graph before scanning — improves cross-function reasoning and reduces missed paths
- Run 2+ scanning rounds — increases recall and stabilizes findings via iterative refinement
- Enforce per-finding validation — significantly reduces false positives through explicit verification
