crypto-compliance SKILL.md skillA

crypto-compliance from arbiterforge/codearbiter is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add arbiterforge/codearbiter/crypto-compliance@git:20260830.00ec49f

Pins git:20260830.00ec49f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

The banned-primitive gate. Routed to when changed code hashes, signs, encrypts, derives keys, generates security-relevant randomness, configures TLS, or imports a crypto library. Rejects broken primitives, disabled TLS verification, and home-rolled crypto; the approved-primitive list lives in security-controls.md. The auth-crypto-reviewer agent is dispatched as the reviewer.

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

# crypto-compliance

The banned-primitive gate. Routed to when changed code uses cryptography, hashing, signing, key derivation, security-relevant random generation, or TLS configuration.

## Pre-flight

Read these, or STOP and surface the gap — never guess the policy:

- `<project-root>/.codearbiter/security-controls.md` — the project's approved and forbidden primitives, key requirements, and TLS minimum. If this file is unreadable, BLOCK; do not infer the policy.

## Phase 1 — Banned-primitive scan · gate: BLOCK

Scan every crypto operation in the changed code against `security-controls.md`. Apply the project's forbidden list; where it is silent, the following BLOCK unconditionally:

- **Broken primitives** — `md5`, `sha1`/`sha-1` (including in HMAC or "just for IDs"), `des`, `3des`, `rc4`, and RSA keys below 2048 bits.
- **Disabled TLS verification** — `rejectUnauthorized: false`, `verify: false`, or any disabling of certificate peer verification, on any connection.
- **Home-rolled crypto** — a hand-built cipher, AEAD, KDF, signature scheme, or any reimplementation of a primitive in userland instead of a vetted, approved one.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arbiterforge/codearbiter/crypto-compliance@sha256:8c40fc6e0d2afbcd

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260830.00ec49f, 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.
