Security-focused development skill covering OWASP Top 10 and secure coding. Use when implementing authentication, handling user data, or security review. Keywords: security, auth, authentication, authorization, OWASP, XSS, SQL injection, CSRF, secure.
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 Best Practices Skill
> **Philosophy:** Security is not optional. Build it in from the start.
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- Implementing authentication/authorization
- Handling user input
- Working with sensitive data
- Doing security code review
- Building user-facing features
- Setting up deployment/infrastructure
**Do NOT use this skill when:**
- Just formatting code
- Pure UI/styling changes
- No user data involved
---
## Prerequisites
Before starting:
- [ ] Understand what data you're handling
- [ ] Know your threat model (who might attack)
- [ ] Have access to codebase
- [ ] Understand the tech stack

## OWASP Top 10 Quick Reference
### 1. Broken Access Control (A01:2021)
**What:** Users can access data/functions they shouldn't.
**Prevention:**
```typescript
// ❌ Bad: No authorization check
app.get('/users/:id', async (req, res) => {
const user = await db.users.findById(req.params.id);
res.json(user);
});
// ✅ Good: Check ownership
app.get('/users/:id', authorize(), async (req, res) => {
const user = await db.users.findById(req.params.id);
if (user.id !== req.user.id && req.user.role !== 'admin') {

How to install
mdr add vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp/security-best-practices@sha256:32e770db3ab9e859The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
