meta-reviewing-api-reviewing SKILL.md skillA

meta-reviewing-api-reviewing from agents-inc/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add agents-inc/skills/meta-reviewing-api-reviewing@git:20261016.63d2b02

Pins git:20261016.63d2b02 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Backend code review — injection and SSRF, boundary validation, object-level authorization, mass assignment and data exposure, error leakage, N+1 and unbounded queries. Use when a diff touches API routes or handlers, database access, auth middleware, or server code that reads files, starts processes or fetches URLs.

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

# API Code Review Patterns

> **Quick Guide:** Review a backend diff's inputs and outputs before anything else in it: what enters without a schema, what reaches an interpreter or an outbound request as part of a string, which route answers without checking whose row it returns, and which fields leave in a response, a log or an error. Those are Must Fix and block approval; error text and query shape are Should Fix, addressed before merge without blocking it; the rest of the codebase's habits are not this diff's findings. Two facts change the verdict often enough to hold up front: a tagged `sql` template binds its interpolated values, so the injection is the untagged template literal; and an argument array keeps the shell out but not the program's own option parser.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add agents-inc/skills/meta-reviewing-api-reviewing@sha256:9f1f846298347a63

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.63d2b02, 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.
