Audit authorization expressed as configuration or framework convention rather than inline code: row-level security and policy rules, framework before-action and middleware filters that must be attached to every protected route, serverless and gateway access rules, and object-ownership checks. Covers routes that skip the filter, policies with a permissive default, rules that check authentication but not ownership, and gaps between where the rule is declared and where the data is accessed.

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
# Auditing declarative authorization: coverage and correctness are two audits Modern authorization is often declarative: a policy attached to a table, a filter registered on a controller, a rule in a gateway or serverless config. The strength of that model is also its weakness, security depends on the rule being attached to every path that needs it, and on the rule actually expressing the intended constraint. The failures are gaps (a route the filter never covers) and mis-statements (a rule that checks the wrong thing), and both are invisible if you only read the routes that are protected. ## When to use - You are reviewing role- or policy-driven access control. - Authorization is enforced by row-level policies, controller filters, middleware, or gateway rules. - Protection depends on a rule being attached per route, per table, or per resource. ## Scope check Audit access control in systems you own or are authorized to test, with test accounts across roles and tenants. If you can't name the authorization, stop. ## The loop 1. **Locate every declared rule and its scope.** Inventory the authorization rules: …

How to install
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/auditing-declarative-authorization@sha256:003b27470e49c782The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260816.e670f56, 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.
