configure-repo-scan SKILL.md skillA

configure-repo-scan from harness/harness-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add harness/harness-skills/configure-repo-scan@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Configure code scanning in Harness pipelines using STO security scanners. Helps identify where to inject SAST/SCA scanning steps into existing pipelines, recommends appropriate scanners, and configures them with proper connector references. Use when asked to add code scanning, configure security scans, set up SAST/SCA, integrate vulnerability scanning, or add security checks to a pipeline. Trigger phrases: add code scanner, configure repo scan, set up SAST, add security scan, configure…

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

# Configure Repo Scan

Add code scanning steps to existing Harness pipelines using STO security scanners.

## Instructions

### Step 1: Establish Scope and Pipeline Context

Ask the user for the organization, project, and pipeline identifier if not already known. This skill only works with existing pipelines.

Once you have the identifiers, fetch the pipeline definition:

```
Call MCP tool: harness_get
Parameters:
  resource_type: "pipeline"
  resource_id: "<pipeline_identifier>"
  org_id: "<organization>"
  project_id: "<project>"
```

### Step 2: Extract Repository Connector from Pipeline

Parse the pipeline YAML from Step 1 to automatically identify the repository connector used in the pipeline.

Look for the connector reference in the pipeline structure:
- For v0 pipelines: Check `pipeline.properties.ci.codebase.connectorRef`
- For v1 pipelines: Check the codebase connector in the pipeline configuration

If no connector is found in the pipeline, inform the user that the pipeline does not have a codebase configuration and cannot proceed with repo scanning.

### Step 3: Analyze Pipeline Structure

Parse the pipeline YAML from Step 1 to identify:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add harness/harness-skills/configure-repo-scan@sha256:e711e88caa09ad9f

The 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.
