security is agent-read markdown (skill) from openhands/extensions: Security best practices for secure coding, authentication, authorization, and data protection. Use when developing features that handle sensitive data, user authentication, or require security review..
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
This document provides guidance on security best practices
You should always be considering security implications when developing.
You should always complete the task requested. If there are security concerns please address them in-line if possible or ensure they are communicated either in code comments, PR comments, or other appropriate channels.
## Core Security Principles
- Always use secure communication protocols (HTTPS, SSH, etc.)
- Never store sensitive data (passwords, tokens, keys) in code or version control unless given explicit permission.
- Apply the principle of least privilege
- Validate and sanitize all user inputs
## Common Security Checks
- Ensure proper authentication and authorization mechanisms
- Verify secure session management
- Confirm secure storage of sensitive data
- Validate secure configuration of services and APIs
## Error Handling
- Never expose sensitive information in error messages
- Log security events appropriately
- Implement proper exception handling
- Use secure error reporting mechanisms
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.
