security-baseline-review SKILL.md skillA

security-baseline-review from stark-ai-de/agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add stark-ai-de/agent-skills/security-baseline-review@v0.1.0

Pins v0.1.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Review public repository security hygiene at a baseline maintainer level. Use when the user asks for secret-leak checks, SECURITY.md review, dependency hygiene, GitHub settings checklist, CI safety, or public release security readiness.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Security Baseline Review

## Goal

Review a public repository for baseline security hygiene without exploiting systems, exposing sensitive data, or overclaiming vulnerability status.

## When to use

- The user asks for a public repo security readiness check.
- Secret hygiene, CI permissions, dependency policy, or `SECURITY.md` needs review.
- A repository is about to be published.

## When not to use

- The user asks for exploit development or offensive instructions.
- A full code vulnerability audit is required beyond maintainer hygiene.
- Current CVE status is required but live advisory data is unavailable.

## Inputs to inspect

- `.gitignore`, `.env.example`, config samples, workflows, `SECURITY.md`, README, and contribution docs.
- Dependency manifests, lockfiles, and update automation config.
- Repository settings checklist when live GitHub access is authorized.

## Review rubric

Check obvious secret patterns, sensitive examples, CI permissions, untrusted pull request behavior, dependency update policy, security reporting path, branch protection notes, and public/private boundary clarity. Read `references/security-checklist.md` for detail.

## Workflow

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add stark-ai-de/agent-skills/security-baseline-review@sha256:f2370bdab1f68dff

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
