The Problem

Standard AI code reviews are often shallow, missing structural flaws or subtle logic bugs that lead to security breaches. When using Grok in a CLI environment, it is easy to rush through security-sensitive changes without a structured auditing framework.

What it does

This skill implements a professional-grade, multi-phase security review methodology specifically optimized for Grok. It forces the agent to move beyond simple syntax checking into deep threat modeling and systematic vulnerability scanning.

The Methodology

• Phase 1: Threat Modeling - Identifies trust boundaries and sensitive data flows.
• Phase 2: Vulnerability Scanning - Checks for OWASP Top 10 issues including SQLi, Broken Access Control, and Insecure Deserialization.
• Phase 3: Defense-in-Depth - Ensures multiple layers of protection like input validation and rate limiting are present.
• Phase 4: Prioritized Remediation - Provides tiered severity ratings and minimal-fix recommendations.

Why this is better than basic prompting

Unlike a generic "check for bugs" prompt, this skill encodes a defense-in-depth mindset. It prevents the agent from approving sensitive changes without verification and enforces a strict remediation workflow, turning Grok into a disciplined security auditor.
