security is agent-read markdown (skill) from jnpiyush/agentx: Implement production security practices covering OWASP Top 10, input validation, injection prevention, and secrets management. Use when hardening applications against vulnerabilities, implementing authentication/authorization, managing secrets, configuring HTTPS/TLS, or conducting security audits..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Security
> **Purpose**: Language-agnostic security practices to protect against common vulnerabilities.
> **Focus**: Input validation, injection prevention, authentication, secrets management.
> **Note**: For language-specific implementations, see [C# Development](../../languages/csharp/SKILL.md) or [Python Development](../../languages/python/SKILL.md).

## When to Use This Skill
- Hardening applications against OWASP Top 10
- Implementing authentication and authorization
- Managing secrets and credentials securely
- Configuring HTTPS/TLS
- Conducting security audits
## Prerequisites
- OWASP Top 10 awareness
- Understanding of HTTP security headers
## Decision Tree
```
Security concern?
+- User input? -> VALIDATE + SANITIZE (see Input Validation)
| +- Goes into SQL? -> Parameterized queries ONLY
| +- Goes into HTML? -> Encode output (XSS prevention)
| - Goes into shell? -> Avoid; use SDK/API instead
+- Authentication?
| +- New system? -> Use established provider (OAuth2/OIDC)
| - Existing? -> Verify token validation, session management
+- Secrets/credentials?
| +- In code? -> REMOVE -> use env vars or vault
| - In config? -> Move to secrets manager

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
